Bogiesmokes Valued Member United States 197 Posts	Posted 06/07/2021 6:48 pm I started looking at this coin before seeing the responses to the 1951-S Franklin I posted - I'll get back to checking that mint mark this evening. But I did find this little guy...is the rim bend attributed to PMD? Edited by Bogiesmokes 06/07/2021 6:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 98220 Posts	Posted 06/07/2021 7:08 pm Yes, I would say that the rim damage is PMD from circulation Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/07/2021 11:34 pm The only thing this coin has going for it that it's made of silver. Numismatically, post mint damage ( PMD) has ruined it. Report this Post to the Staff
