Sending them in to be graded? Sending them in to be melted down? Or just cashing in clad? More info needed.

Take good photos of coins in question and you may get some good answers here. Only send in to someone that you know or has a good reputation.

The coin in post number #8 has glue or something on it. It's a penny with glue on it? Or am I missing what your trying to show?

He has been advised of this on other threads. To my knowledge, he has not yet followed additional advice given and allowed a qualified professional to examine it. Perhaps he eventually will.

Time for more coffee.

I agree with Nitric the coin has like super glue on it or some other type of glue that took the impression of another coin and looks like a turned re stamping of the coin.IMO

This sticks out to me....When I was 11 or 12 my Great grandfather gave me a coin collection. I dug out the baking soda polished them up "Real Nice", and glued them to a piece of cardboard to take them to show and tell at school. To this day that shiny 1867 indian with full detail and glue all over the back turns my stomach!!! :BangHead: Along with all the others that have glue on them.. But the 1867 would be worth the most if it wouldn't have been ground away with backing soda and glued.:laughing7:

All pics are of a Lincoln Memorial cent. These were first minted in 1959. Sorry to say, I do not see how you could see an 1820 date on a Lincoln Memorial cent.

Guys, The one you think is glue is actually the Lincoln Memorial from the other side of the coin being double stamped over Lincoln's head. Both coins are mint errors in my opinion.

This coin was posted on a coin collecting site and one of the country's top error experts, who also authenticates errors for pcgs, has said it is just glue. The only other alternative would be to send it to one of the big three grading, authenticating services. These are ANACS, NGC and PCGS. I think PCGS you have to be a member or have a member dealer submit it. It will cost money, but it is pretty much the only way to go after one of the most esteemed experts has already given his opinion. No harassment, but if you are convinced it is something worthwhile, you are just going to have to send it to one of the big three graders.

looks to me as two coins where glued together, then separated and the imprint remained on the glue or acrylic.

I would say throw it under a black light, if that stuff glows then it surely is not a mark error.
