On the top you can see one cent but it is in reverse. Can someone tell me what this is? I took the photos through my loop to try to see it better.

    Looks like two coins were glued together and then pried apart. Bet there is a matching one. Soak it awhile and the glue will float off.

    rickmp Frequently flatulent.

    Notice that "CENT" in the glue is reversed.
    It's a dead give away for a glued cent.

    I'll notify Encyclopedia Brown that his services are no longer required on this case.
