<p>[QUOTE="Tyler Graton, post: 2673931, member: 85787"]ok so here is the deal on this coin. A lot of people say that this is acid dipped penny, I almost believe it. But even they aren't sure. So I will try to figure out what's wrong with this coin once and for all. It is an 1983 unknown mint mark. I honestly want to know exactly what it is so when I show ppl my collection, I can explain to the people that ask what it is. The best way I can explain the way this coin is damaged, is like explaining ripples on water or lines on a fingerprint, wrinkles on sheets. Did someone use a blow torch maybe? Cause I find it impossible that the surface of his coin was risen up due to acid. Unless the acid made the metal soft and someone used something to manipulate the ripple effect. Does this make sense to you? If not I'll try my best to explain again. [ATTACH=full]595984[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]595985[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
