This is probably PMD, but maybe its some kind of plating error. How do you tell the difference? * Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. It's very important to have in the title. * Regardless, I hope you're all having a wonderful day :) Report this Post to the Staff

If there was a patch of missing copper plating, you would see a slight dip in the surface down to the underlying zinc core.

Dearborn Moderator United States 95805 Posts	Posted 08/28/2023 5:03 pm with the kind very smart folks that responded to this topic so far - and I'll agree with staining on the surface. But what does the reverse look like? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
