Hey guys I know it's a grease issue related to the floating Roof, it looks pretty cool but is it worth saving I seem to come up with a lot of them so they are probably not that rare. thoughts?

It's caused by excessive die polishing, very common.

Also, the roof still looks attached on that coin.
The floating roof is just another ebay made up term.
