Found the odd colored one in the middle of this uncirulated roll of coins. What is this from?

    Some questions:
    Can we get a reverse pic?
    Was it in a mint roll or a bank roll?
    I honestly don't know what that is, but posting more photos and more info could help you get answers from people who do.

    Date?
    Mint mark?
    Picture of the wrapper?

    @OneGoodCoin... Welcome aboard. We will need more information (such as requested above) to help you. Plus some better pictures - large size, obverse and reverse. Cheers, RickO

    This is about the most I could blow it up without a lot of distortion.
    I would guess it is a foreign material on the coin but guess is only based on the thick to thin appearance.
    I don't know.
    Yes more pictures (and maybe at heavy angles to capture appearances and/or edge) and any description from OP would help.

    Looks like the end coin on a shotgun roll that was exposed a harsh environment (high humidity or perhaps air pollution from industrial fumes) that caused the exposed part of the coin to corrode.

    Could had been a sticker that was placed over the coin and since removed and that is the left over adhesive.

    looks like they forgot to remove the "anti-corrosion film" from the die before they used it and created a "struck thru anti-corrosion film" error. LOL
