riverazaraao New Member United States 23 Posts	Posted 07/22/2023 10:37 am Hello! Just trying to understand what happened to this little fellow found in pocket change. Both images (one obv the other rev) struck on the obverse of another appear horizontally flipped. Thanks for any tips! Edited by riverazaraao 07/22/2023 10:41 am Report this Post to the Staff

EricH Valued Member United States 140 Posts	Posted 07/22/2023 10:46 am Looks like there was glue on the coin with another coin stuck to it and then peeled off leaving an image maybe. Report this Post to the Staff

Wait for more experienced members. Edit to add: looks like EricH called it first! Edited by igwt79 07/22/2023 10:50 am Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95200 Posts	Posted 07/22/2023 12:04 pm That is glue that is on the coin, it is protecting it from toning out as well. An acetone soak may soften it up to be removed. Also it looks like it had another 2000 dated coin pressed against it and that created the backwards date behind Lincoln's head. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.
