coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/12/2016 9:17 pm This coin looks polished. Note the outline around the devices and the flattening on the highest points. Looks like the 1 cam loose and is more into the position it is now in. PSD Report this Post to the Staff
SolomonValley Valued Member United States 92 Posts	Posted 06/12/2016 11:01 pm It was rubbed with a lens cleaning cloth because it had so much grime on it I could not even make out the date. That was when I noticed the 1. If the 1 came loose and bent into the position it's in now that would have to be a really long 1? Report this Post to the Staff
