    20200321_200103.jpg 20200321_200129.jpg I'm new to coin hunting. I found this half dollar. I believe it is a 1971. Can anybody help me I dentify what happened to this coin. I put it side-by-side a regular 1991.

    If it was dipped, it was dipped in something really nasty and corrosive. Looks like it was mauled by machinery or some other heavily invasive technique.

    You are right. I was unsure I pushed the right button. Sorry.

    Acid, I suspect.

    (Was that @green18 YouTube clip from the psychedelic '60s a subtle riff on that? Who knows.)

    I combined the duplicate threads.
