aardspeed Pillar of the Community 921 Posts	Posted 01/10/2013 11:37 pm I'd almost say someone did the gouging on the 1 side, which shows through on the otherside? Or could be a grease strike thru? Either way a very interesting coin...Can't wait to hear what the experts have to say!! Report this Post to the Staff

LaureateBust Valued Member Canada 331 Posts	Posted 01/11/2013 10:54 am What I'm seeing is at least nine impressions made on the reverse that are the same shape. Looks to me like the damage was done hammer-and-chisel style, and the force caused the bulging on the obverse. Can't see it being anything other than PMD. Report this Post to the Staff

That is exactly what I saw as well.They are ALL the exact same size and shape(some overlapping others). I don't know that it was a chisel, but something was definately hammered onto this coin.
