Gzdhvt New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 11:02 am Any thoughts on whether this looks like a possible error or is it more likely damage? Weight 3.1 Edited by Gzdhvt 04/01/2021 12:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 12:21 pm I think we are going to need clear close ups and maybe weight? Maybe carefully placed acid? I am not seeing this as an error...yet. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 4:31 pm to the CCF! It looks like a Grease Filled Die strike. Do you happen to know the weight of the coin?

whatdowehavehere Valued Member Canada 235 Posts	Posted 04/02/2021 6:43 pm I think you can see where the acid (14K test?) surged; a bit of vaseline on the MM would make it invulerable to the application. Possibly a corner of a paper towel was used to soak up the acid, and was wiped in a straight movement across the coin. Since the MM is right under the Date, it would be far-fetched to account the damage to an obstructed strike. Edited by whatdowehavehere 04/02/2021 7:00 pm Report this Post to the Staff
