    It looks a bit like corrosion to me. Not a staple. That would be a very small staple if it were one o_O

    Acetone would be all you can do about it.

    Even if it was a high grade, it wouldn't be worth submitting.

    Its a common date and you can buy entire BU rolls for waaaay less than grading fees.

    Something has affected the copper on the coin and whatever it is caused corrosion in that area.
