    Looks like adhesive residue but the image is poor

    I agree but can’t you just take a photo of the coin?

    That looks more like a gummy adhesive. You should be able to rub it off with your finger.

    Probably glue residue. Soak it in acetone for a few hours and see if it lift off.
    Certainly no error of any type, just PMD.

    Fellow enthusiasts nailed it. It may have been stuck to a card at some point...or a school project. It happens quite often.

    Just because something looks different, strange or weird does not automatically make it a mint error.
    There are many ways coins are damaged/altered after they leave the US Mint :(

    I don't think everyone realizes it is not the adhesive spot in the center that you are inquiring about. Lol

    Now I'm confused with this thread :confused:

    And it probably won't go any further :bored:
