SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 08/29/2022 4:23 pm Please take the coin out of the 2x2 and try to get a close-up. I'm assuming the area in question is the bottom of the NE in "ONE"? It could be a lot of things based on this photo (a small Cud, a strike through, or just PMD). Need better photos to give an accurate response. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16826 Posts	Posted 08/29/2022 9:49 pm Looks like something mildly acidic got spilled on this coin. You can see the "tide line" of removed toning, running from the beginning of the N in ONE, over in a wavy line to beyond the T in CENT. The red stain might be just the salt deposit left behind when whatever liquid it was, evaporated away. Or, it's entirely possible that the "red stain" was originally a green stain of corrosion, and the "tide line" is the mark left behind from whatever cleaning agent (like ammonia) was used to try to make the corrosion go away. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/30/2022 6:53 pm Looks like something was on the "NE" on the second image, and now it is missing on the later images. Report this Post to the Staff
