I'm going to guess PMD by someone who tried a vise job on this poor cent. I took 4 close ups (two per side) so what do you say? The stuff on the reverse if you run your fingers on the surface you can feel the coin raised at the contacts on the Memorial building. Let me know your thoughts and regards!
