I do not understand what you mean when speaking of substance I don't know the liquid subtance which has formed a precise outline to the limit I would say that these other metal when we manufacture the piece and the number look in the red circle

Thank you,
Keep in mind that when you have a foreign substance like yours on the surface of the coin, an additional coin placed over the top of that, can leave the details of that secondary coin in that foreign substance…

if is a strange substance God we trust haved been strucked in this substance the letter is on the substance and flush and no distanced and this strange substance like transparent and is impregnate not appear after the struck look this pic so that its is struck with such precision and no distance squaring and the substance haved not overwhelmed and the substance is not overflowed from the rim and not having caused more stains or spreading everywhere on the piece I have the impression the metal was already damaged before the struck.if the substance had freshly strucked during manufacture the appearance and result would not have been like a grease error? that's why I think the coin where the material was already asleep even before it was strucked??

with the appearance we clearly distinguish that the words trust and others were strucked over the suggested substance not below clearly visible that the words trust was strucked over it so yes I think it was there even before it was strucked

This is simply glue or some other substance that was put onto the coin AFTER the coin left the mint. People post stuff like this on coin forums all the time. People do all sorts of strange things to coins, or the substance might have stuck there by accident if the coin was dropped into it.

There is nothing at the mint or in the minting process which would make anything looking like this at all. It is post mint damage to the coin.

You can see if it will peel off with your fingernail or you could soak it in PURE acetone. Acetone cannot chemically react/harm the metal of the coin. It is just a stronger solvent than water. The acetone will likely remove the substance by making it quit sticking to the coin, or the acetone will simply dissolve it.

What you see as a small 8 is likely just pareidolia, or as Paul has said, if another coin was introduce to the glue/whatever when it was till soft, a backwards image of what was on the other coin can appear in the substance.
clearly visible that the words trust was strucked over it so yes I think it was there even before it was strucked
I this case the base of the T would not be sticking out from under the substance as can clearly be see in in the picture.

these coins have 20 tons of pressure put onto them to strike them. There is no way:
1. Any substance was on the meticulously cleaned/tumbled planchet before it got into the press, and
2. That any substance such as this would not be squeezed entirely out from between the coin and dies when it had 20 tons of pressure applied to it.

Something that may help in understanding all of this is to research the coin making process. It will help you determine true errors from coins like this one.

This coin has a clear nail polish or some other substance on it, so it's not a mint error.
