Tin soldering, paint, or some type of adhesive. Had to have been done at the mint, so you need to add this one to your collection of mint damaged rare coins.
Thank you ..why does it look like a dime or silver in copper?.I did not show the other parts trying to see what folks will say with just this example.
Sorry, value 1¢. Looks like post mint damage of some kind! Silver crud means nothing. Better luck next time!
….and I'm smart enough to know that I would be wasting my time trying to explain anything to him. Chris
Why do people ask for help and then deny whatever help they are given? We see it here all too frequently.
Tough to answer. Lack of education in the hobby I suppose. I know I felt like attacks were the result of something other than the obvious at one time. Still do I suppose to some degree.
Could be. Perhaps they're so sure they found a treasure, their heart is set on it and nothing can change it. A lot of us are like that when we are kids I think. But we eventually grew up.
