I'm new to this world of coin collecting so I'd like to thank everyone in advance for any and all advice in this is exciting new hobby. To start, I found this in some change from a local fast food joint. It looks like there's a partial "D" but I can't tell and my microscope can't zoom in any further. I'd love to hear any feedback from the community. Report this Post to the Staff

I think it may be a combo of the surface toning/wear, the flow lines and your eyes trying to fill in a pattern. Report this Post to the Staff
