Something has ground away the copper plating and some of the zinc core as well. Most likely, this coin was perfectly normal when it was struck, but it was cut down intentionally or accidentally. This could be a Dryer Coin. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
Notatzaddik Valued Member United States 81 Posts	Posted 11/09/2022 11:13 am It appears to be damage, the spots that still appear to be copper are probably lower/higher than the rest of the coins. Take a look perhaps? Report this Post to the Staff
