coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/05/2022 12:22 pm How do we know this is acid dipped? Note the devices? Although they are weak, if this were a thinned planchet issue, then the other devices would be normal size, but the tapered area would show weak/missing devices: So if this were a split off before the strike, we would be the devices full, but weak because of the missing layer that came off pre strike: If it split off after the strike, then the surface would be different: Because the devices are all present and the thickness was reduced, then it was a normal coin when struck, but was soaked in acid leaving the weakness and rough texture on the coin. Why would people do this: So by using this information, we can figure out how jacrispies figured this out. But knowing the reason for the conclussion... Priceless. CoopHome: How can you tell if a coin was PSD thinned/mint error thinned/struck through a thinned mint event? Knowing this would be a great aid.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/05/2022 2:23 pm Bits of different information, now tied into the fuller story of what/how/when something happened. More clues in the future will relate even more. I never say that it is compete yet. (Keeping an open mind) Report this Post to the Staff

Skeletonwizard8 Valued Member United States 162 Posts	Posted 05/05/2022 11:28 pm Definitely acid. If it was standard weight, could have been an error though! Report this Post to the Staff
