Silver_Planchet New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 09/18/2024 1:02 pm Hey all - First post here. Someone on r/Coins on Reddit recommended I post on this forum. I got these two coins back today with details/damage. I'm not concerned with it not getting a grade, but I did want to know more about the reason. I called PCGS, and they said there were signs of repair but didn't specify which coin or both. I figure the hive mind here would be able to help me. I think the Trade dollar has a little dent on the rim. For the yen, I couldn't tell what the specific damage was. Thank you! Report this Post to the Staff

On the reverse of the Trade dollar there appears to be pin holes directly across from each other at 5 and 11 o'clock. The 5 o'clock area may also have some residual solder. Evidently the piece was mounted, possibly to be worn as jewelry. Edit Looking more closely at the yen, there may also be a damaged denticle and pin hole on the reverse between 6 and 7 o'clock.
