Hard to say for sure - but since the "stuff" is yellow - and the coins have yellow/gold toning - 2+2= ?? If nothing else - I would blast each...
Strictly my opinion - there is a large ding at the base of the neck and a few too many marks in the fields and the devices of the obverse for 66....
Well I rather doubt it's nicotine to begin with. If the coins were in Whitman folders - and assuming the folders were closed when stored -...
