[QUOTE="Collecting Nut, post: 7686348, member: 74863"]I have a 1964 Kennedy half dollar. I purchased it in 2013 as junk silver so a low cost. Yesterday was the first day I opened the bag which contained 5.00 face, all junk silver. If you look at the coin you see these perfectly formed rings on the obverse. I was able to get them on film. If I tilt the coin slightly the rings disappear but they are only on the obverse. I’ve never seen this so no idea how or why this could have happened. Has anyone ever seen or head is this? Any ideas as to causes? I’m not expecting this to make me rich so please don’t go there. I’m just curious as to the rings. [USER=44615]@paddyman98[/USER] Have you seen this? They are not raised nor cut into the coin. A fingerprint has a different look to it than these circles do and they are not near the color of a print. In reality, it looks more like a security feature than anything else I can think of but I know it’s not that. HELP!! [ATTACH=full]1319919[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1319920[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
