What coin ? All I can see is a cute thing in blue. PS please don't tell my wife on me .. LOL
This one may have been outside in the weather for a while. These zinc cents will totally rot away when left outside.
Medoraman sorry but I have to disagree with you here. Acid can be put on a nickel coin and let it eat half or more of the coin away and it will...
You have it wrong here , nickels are not plated like dimes , or other plated coins.
From the way this coin looks in the photos it looks like it has a copper core with a nickel plating . It also looks like someone has been trying...
Furryfrog is right in my opinion. The die has had a small clogged area clogging up the Y . This is why the Y is missing.
These sorry copper plated cents are horrible for the copper plating to swell up . This is caused by the zinc core swelling up and pushing the...
Are you asking about the spot above the nose ? The spot looks to be struck thru something , maybe grease with mint residue mixed in it. Surely...

The guys are right , the mint workers have tried to restore a old overused die by polishing something off it . Feeder finger damage is much more...
It is probably part of a Indian motorcycle advertising piece or maybe part of a old Pontiac Chief car advertising piece. I have one of the Pontiac...

I'm thinking that maybe the microscope is adjusted up too high and distorting the images to make it look like doubling. Then maybe I'm wrong . If...
It looks like some foreign object has got attached to your quarter. I thought it may be a tiny die chip at first but when I enlarged the photo it...
Ithas been struck thru a grease filled die
It looks to be from a small damaged area on the die that struck the coin or a small occluded gas bubble. Both of these could look the same for a...
This coin looks like it may have come from a counter clashed die with most of the clash marks polished off the die. I think this way because of...
Darn it someone stabbed poor ole Lincoln... lol
