Hello, I recently received this coin yet I do not know what happened to the front of it. Any ideas? Could it maybe be worth something?

Yes, appears to be a dried glue 'imprint' issue. For fun, a long soak in 100% acetone would likely greatly reduce or eliminate the substance. Again, this would be for fun only, and a cool learning experience too.

I agree with other coins glued to it, then removed later.
