<p>[QUOTE=&quot;USS656, post: 162371, member: 6641&quot;]Thank you Speedy,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Good advice about the cleaning and I will keep it mind the next time I find a coin that might be rare.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>As mentioned though, after closer examination I think this is a normal coin with no special value. Whatever the nickel was covered with originally looked natural and odd which is what prompted my original question. It just looks old now, which it is. The coin still has a black dull sheen from what ever it was covered in or as a result of the chemical I used. Before I &quot;cleaned it&quot; it looked more like a lead penny type of alloy. You can see the result in the attachment.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Best Regards,</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Darryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
