Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74065 Posts	Posted 08/08/2024 01:18 am Looks like acid damage ( PMD). There's no Misaligned Die or Partial Collar. The low weight is a dead giveaway of it being an acid coin. It's supposed to way 8.1 grams. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 08/08/2024 4:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff

(the copper is a much softer metal than the copper/nickel cladding.) Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 08/08/2024 08:27 am Dearborn said it all, I agree. Some household and commercial cleaners will do that, maybe was at the bottom of a tool box that had spilled stuff in it or a students experiment? Who knows. Bottom line is it is damage and has no extra value. Report this Post to the Staff
robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2757 Posts	Posted 08/08/2024 10:57 am all - was this done to the coin to make it look like an error? (Not by the person posting it! Just previously ...) Edited by robbudo 08/08/2024 10:58 am Report this Post to the Staff
Tacc Pillar of the Community United States 3535 Posts	Posted 08/08/2024 11:33 am Agree with above. Hard to know what acidic environment this coin was in or how long it was in it. Even just being buried in highly acid soil can erode the copper faster than the cupro-nickel clad layer. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95740 Posts	Posted 08/08/2024 5:49 pm but it IS the first Dollar coin to look like this - all the rest have been quarters. So keep it as a novelty.
