Lamination mint error

    Sorry – not a lamination or clad layer error.
    The surfaces are environmentally damaged and there appears to be glue or some other substance on the surfaces reverse – it is not an error coin

    It looks like glue residue... We have seen several examples of glue on coins here... a soak in acetone will remove it. The PMD will remain though.... Cheers, RickO

    The good news is it will still be worth .25 cents after this treatment. :)
