Hello - Total newbie here to the forums & to collecting coins. I’m unable to identify the problem with the coin. What is this glob? Not listed in Cherrypickers or in any coin discussion threads. At least not that I could find. My apologies for the poor pics. The coin is encapsulated & I can’t get it out. Any help identifying is appreciated.

Kind regards.

    @Raindrops_and_Roses... Welcome aboard.... Your nickel is worn from handling.. the blob appears to be an attempt at soldering a device to it ... perhaps to use as a cuff link or other jewelry.... No added value or collector interest. Cheers, RickO

    Am I the only one who has noticed that the photo layout in all of these newbie posts are EXACTLY the same? Coincidence? I don't think so. Instead of WELCOME ABOARD, perhaps WALK THE PLANK would be more appropriate.

    I would like to see all newbies converge and opine on their similar find...It will be a good start given the same interest:)
