Marty1102 Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Pretty new to this just want to see if someone experienced could tell me what this is or confirm if I am correct on what I think it is? Is this a blister or some kind of corrosion? When I zoom in next to the D, it looks like a raised circle. Thanks have a great night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coinbuf Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Both, a plating blister that popped and now zinc rot has begun. Sandon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powermad5000 Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 For the most part, your photos are not properly cropped and mostly too far away. I cannot tell if that is a plating blister that gave way, or if it is a hit or dimple from something pointy hitting the coin in that area piling up metal next to the small hole it created. Either way, kudos for not thinking right away that it is some kind of mint error. Marty1102 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenstang Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Looks like a plating blister that has popped. Corrosion wil probably start to set in now that air has been exposed to the zinc. Best to get rid of it now. Sandon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
