Dearborn Moderator United States 96728 Posts	Posted 06/28/2023 10:54 pm Looks like glue is on this coin. An acetone bath over night should soften it up for removal. Collecting since 1972.

Readyfinddo Valued Member United States 148 Posts	Posted 06/28/2023 11:54 pm i'll try to take more pictures but it is not anything on it , it is indented, piece of petal is missing where it looks like a leaf Report this Post to the Staff
Cointree Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 06/29/2023 12:07 am Yes it looks like just PMD (major dent/gouge) at the S in TRUST. It does look like some substance stuck to the coin on at WE, but I am thinking that is just PMD as well. Something about your photos makes it look like glue or something stuck to it.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 06/29/2023 06:39 am I am thinking struck through or a lamination. Is it also an RPM,I might be seeing a split serif? 100% acetone soak is your first step. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 06/29/2023 08:51 am Agree, soak it and get back. Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 06/29/2023 5:30 pm with John1 lamination from the D in god to the S in trust. Not so sure about an RPM though. Edited by Cujohn 06/29/2023 5:32 pm Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19177 Posts	Posted 06/29/2023 5:43 pm Acetone is your friend. Too, there may be a lamination issue present, and can't rule out a strike-through. Would love to see the coin in-hand--but that's not happening. Report this Post to the Staff
