Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 08/07/2023 10:46 am Interesting. I'm thinking it's a lamination, too. It looks as if the lamination extends through the letters ERICA, but it may just be a well-placed contact mark. The bad part is the attempt to modify the denomination of ONE CENT into a 'Brothel Token' leaving the coin damaged. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff

robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 08/08/2023 5:03 pm agree with lamination. unfortunate scratch between ONE and CENT. I believe someone might have started to try to turn this into a so-called 'brothel token', altering the E in CENT to the last vowel in the alphabet. Report this Post to the Staff
