LostDutchman Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 could be a couple of things... either some sort of hot liquid metal got on the coin...it might have been put in a mount.. (it' hard to tell if the dark areas are raised or inset) or it could be a counterfeit with the plating coming off (but only if the dark areas are into the coin and not raised) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostDutchman Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 my best guess.....it was mounted into something metal and they soddered it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burks Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 Looks like solder damage to me too. I concur. You are probably right on waiting for gold to go up. It's a good time to hold on to that gold IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
