Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 03/25/2018 7:53 pm @coop, rather than being partly plated, is it possible that the plating was partly stripped off of this coin (e.g. PMD)?

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 03/25/2018 9:27 pm That's interesting . If it were in a straight line on both sides (and they aligned), I would be suspicious of it being dipped in something to remove the copper plating. I really don't know how to authenticate it.
