There was a post a while ago where a coin had sat on top of another coin for decades, and the design was toned onto it. I assume a similar thing happened here.</p><p>I don&#039;t know why it&#039;s only visible through the camera lens though. You have probably already tried this, but maybe look at it from other angles? It&#039;s interesting for sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
