Forum rules
Here's a link to how to post a topic with images in our community https://coinauctionshelp.com/welcome-to ... community/

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

You also agree to follow these guidelines. You must agree to these rules to be a member of this forum. NO SPAM! Spam is deleted within minutes, no spam will ever be left in our community.

1. Post a front and back image of your coin with a specific question about what you’re seeing or asking about and one coin per topic.

2. Please remove coin from the holder unless it’s US or an official mint case or unless it is graded by a grading service.

3. Images should be taken by a camera or cell phone camera, we ask that members don’t use images through a microscope screen.

4. Always start your own topic, please don’t ask about your coin or post your coin in someone else’s coin topic.

5. Do not send private messages about your coin unless an Admin ask you too and the same for sending emails through the board.

6. No spam. Do not post any links to your coin or other non-coin websites.

7. Always be respectful even if something makes you upset or you don’t agree with a member. You can always get a second opinion elsewhere. If you have an issue then politely ask an admin in an PM. PM’s are for issues, technical and personal, but not for coin questions (refer to number 5 on this list). Our community is not a soap box for complaining or drama, so please refrain from doing so here.[/size]

A friend sent this to me today and wanted to know if it’s an error. I can’t find it anywhere so I know it’s not, but WHAT IS THIS? I told my friend I would ask here. Thanks again for your invaluable knowledge and teaching here! 😊

Tough. That might have been a piece of junk that got on the sheet while printing. But I have seen little bits of paper flake off the surface leaving a bare patch like that. Way smaller though. Nothing this dramatic.

I do have a couple questions though. Does it feel raised or lowered when you run your finger across, or does it feel like it's completely in tact? If you are able to get a really clear close up of the area, that would be helpful too :D
