[QUOTE="cerdsalicious, post: 950707, member: 22135"]What I know about altered mintmarks are two methods. They would soder the mintnark or glue it. The second has me puzzled, I would assume they hold down the mintmark with a needle or toothpick, but what type of glue would leave little residue. I know superglue leaves residue as do glue guns so would they use elmers glue?? Seriously I'm just pondering how it would be done and what type of glue. Anyone know? Can't wait fir the book "confessions of a coin alterer" to come out.[/QUOTE]
