[QUOTE="Kipling79, post: 25596174, member: 103928"]While searching a friend's coins before he cashed them in, I found the most interesting error coin I have ever seen. I took photos with my phone, but everyone who saw those poor photos claimed the "error" was simply glue. I may not be a coin expert, but I know metal. There is clearly metal that has been moved either during planchette manufacturing, during minting, or some inexplicable and complex event post-minting. My bet is dried glue & threads stuck to the planchette before minting. The below photos are from NGC, but I won't have an official answer until the coin goes through conservation for "glue residue". Opinions? Ideas? [Edit] Added better images. [ATTACH=full]1638417[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1638418[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
