Wear has worn through much of it. For fun, consider giving the coin a long soak in 100% acetone. Report this Post to the Staff
hfjacinto Pillar of the Community United States 7273 Posts	Posted 08/29/2023 3:23 pm Put it in acetone, if it dislodges, its some type of organic (like paint or varnish or fat). If it doesn't its environmental and probably bonded to the metal. My Slabbed Dansco 7070 with Gold Page My Slabbed IHC Set My Slabbed 20th Century Type Set Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 94666 Posts	Posted 08/29/2023 5:32 pm Why do you only 'believe' that it is a 1995-D? turn it over and have a look. Also can you post up better images of both sides please? (Larger and in good focus) Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

CreativeName Valued Member United States 65 Posts	Posted 08/29/2023 6:22 pm When I was a kid, the owner of an ice cream shop we went to had quarters set aside with paint on them, so that his son could play the video games and get his quarters back from the vendor (a means of getting free play). The paint tended to wear off of the devices and remain in the fields. It looks like paint to me. Brings back memories. Report this Post to the Staff
