      Looks to me like PSD... Maybe from sitting in plastic... The older plastics had chemicals that would cause the plastic to deteriorate when exposed to high heat (Heat over 100 F) for extended periods of time... The plastic would stick to what ever it was against and leave designs much like this... Acetone may or may not remove the material!!!

        The last pics I posted looks to show the copper Jim but I'm beginning to think it's PSD too.

          Man those are some really nice closeups Jon.

            If the anom is adhered to the coin it would be raised (that's why I'm suggesting the acetone bath) if it is not adhered, the cracks or crinkling may have developed after the strike (possibly because of a thin plating that did not take well to the force of the strike). Just theorizing here. I doubt that anyone can definitively state the cause and in that vein I should not have originally opined the this "could not be PSD". Mea culpa.
            8 spotted sea trout and a pompano?
            Glorious day on the water George.

                    Thanks. Nice "varieties". Definitely no catch and release there!
                    At first I thought "Not many people would keep a jack."
                    Then it was "Ah yes, the pompano are probably starting to show up (with the snowbirds)."
                    Deeee-licious fish.

                      Yes. "Varieties" is the correct word. LOL They are both of the same species.

                            Sorry Jon, I have been out of pocket and just now catching up on your thread! Is this coin going to Jim for photos?

                              Wanted to respond earlier but needed to lay hands on my coin .

                              Jon , could your coin show stress lines/cracks in the plating ? Here is one of mine that shows some wild ones .
