Spence Moderator United States 34453 Posts	Posted 04/17/2021 1:42 pm That is a nice one. @ktc, I know with it being slabbed that you can't get an exact measurement of the diameter, but can you estimate it please? I'm interested to know how much of a bump in diameter there is from being broadstruck. Thx!

silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 04/17/2021 4:43 pm Nice coin. Thanks to share. I am on the side of Spencer, to know the deviation. I just finish the table of off-center and others. will be very interesting to know the diameter and the distance from border to the design start. On those coins if you has 2.25mm deviation is 15%. I like the planchet alloy. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/17/2021 5:38 pm Seems like a low grade for a coin that is just affected by the planchet coloring? All the rest of the coin is free from coin scratch issues, and a great strike providing it was struck out of the collar. Note the beard? How strong that area is struck. Report this Post to the Staff
