andywoj00 Valued Member United States 441 Posts	Posted 03/15/2016 1:08 pm See pics. Was looking through a Wheat hoard and found this. Never seen this type of wear. Do you think it's PMD or bad strike/die? On the reverse, you can see a shadow of the "N", but nothing from the "O". On the obverse, it looks like there should be maybe a "5" there, but the wear pattern is odd. Thoughts? Report this Post to the Staff
