Definitely a pleasure to see this thread serve its purpose for learning. GrapeCollects, that was a severe example of Die Deterioration! I'll add one more example of severe Die Deterioration to this thread. 1982 LMC with severe Die Deterioration, the worst I've seen personally. http://goccf.com/t/322204&whichpage=2#2746987 Errers and Varietys.

seeker15987 New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 06/27/2019 3:14 pm Thank you sir for your help. Sometimes we just want to hear it is a RPM vs MD, pride and determination and want a special coin/find. I think I may send my coin in for grading due to other devises not MD however.

Wular New Member India 16 Posts	Posted 04/12/2020 2:31 pm Great educational post! How would we determine coin wear if they were struck with dies which were not worn out. What stages of wear a does coin undergo in circulation when they have been struck with unworn dies? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/12/2020 2:49 pm Coin wear often shows on the devices that face the rims area. This die wear is a aging process. When you study coins coin you will start to see how as the die ages the distortion shows on the outer edges of devices: Note the notations on the images. Also when the die wear gets real bad then you see sever distortion of the devices: Kind of Gruesome. But these are just die issue, not even figuring in coin wear.
