Cointree Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 04/23/2023 4:03 pm It looks to me more like there may be something stuck to the coin like glue, but it also looks like some of it may be a die crack across the top. Have you tried soaking it in acetone to see of the stuff comes off? Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 04/23/2023 4:28 pm These last pics are awesome! Looks to me like either struck through copper foil or else struck through folded over lamination. Either way, I'd save it in a 2x2.
