snailking1 Pillar of the Community United States 1838 Posts	Posted 09/27/2026 6:18 pm Been trying to figure this one out. At first, I thought perhaps something like a Retained Cud. But I think it looks more like a bent, folded Rim Fin. Thoughts? Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8997 Posts	Posted Yesterday 7:26 pm Just a damaged coin, PMD. You can easily see where the rim was scraped and pushed inward. So, technically, a rim burr but just not how we would normally think of one. Nice pics, as always! -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
