    Question? Is it the same metal as the coin? Looks sort of like glue or something?

    I think it's the same. It's also not where I'd expect it to be if it is where it used to be attached to something.

    I gotta go with Ed's answer on this one. The break is loose, but still in place, thereby allowing the rim ring to show, albeit out of alignment with the rest of it.
