ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19167 Posts	Posted 05/15/2023 07:54 am It's customary to post full, large and sharp pics of the obverse and reverse. This allows us to get a feel for the full context of the coin, which could improve our assessments of what may be going on. Thanks. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/15/2023 11:35 am If raised and see through, it could be glue. If incuse, it could be a struck through debris that fell off the coin. But not a Cud issue. Note the rim is present. On a Cud issue the rim goes away: On the opposite side of a Cud the devices will strike strike up on a Cud. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96451 Posts	Posted 05/15/2023 6:29 pm a small drop of glue? It seems to flow to the low spot. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.
