HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25008 Posts	Posted 11/25/2024 6:19 pm It looks like the coin was plated and then glued into some sort of holder (since liberated). Soak it in pure acetone to see if the obverse improves. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 11/25/2024 6:31 pm That's my guess as well. Apparent scratch across the top of the head pretty much wrecks any premium for this coin in any event. Report this Post to the Staff

Weaverjsnw New Member United States 17 Posts	Posted 11/25/2024 8:00 pm I'll try some acetone and a tip and see what happens. My first thought was the same but there doesn't appear to be any glue on it. I'll check it out.. Report this Post to the Staff
