I'm sure you could pass them a nice lincoln when their parents weren't watching. ;)
I'd have to see it in hand, but my first reaction was it was not a high-end 64. I see no need to crack it out. Have you tried plastic polish...
Doesn't look like a strike-through or PMD. It looks like a lamination that fell away. Basically, the planchet had a defect in the metal when it...
