Drtystarnotelovr New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 05/15/2022 5:29 pm @spence thank you so much! I was referring to the raised pieces within the CENT font. I'll attach another picture with markings. Thank you again for checking it out Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 96831 Posts	Posted 05/15/2022 5:37 pm the red circled bumps are most likely linear plating bubbles. The black spots just looks like 'sharpie' pen marks.

Drtystarnotelovr New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 05/15/2022 9:47 pm @coop I tried! It doesn't depress Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/15/2022 9:53 pm Any gray colors around those areas? It maybe split plating and the zinc is starting to rot. But the gray color could be on the altered areas outlines. Sometimes even coin damage can alter the plating. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 05/16/2022 04:51 am . I agree with a plating issue. You can't always press in the bubble, but it is still a plating issue. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
