numismatist6 Valued Member United States 360 Posts	Posted 11/14/2024 6:46 pm this is perhaps something to do with Greenland. The obverse has a female figure (queen of Denmark?) and the reverse ha a polar bear. It is small bras, measures 16.3 mm and weighs 2.61 grams. Any ideas? Thanks in advance Report this Post to the Staff

I'm interested to see if this is something that is commonly found.

okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5585 Posts	Posted 11/14/2024 8:24 pm Yes, people pop them out and, usually, put them back 180 degrees out or put the Obv bust into the Rev legend. I think, on another site, there was a "how to" on Facebook or UTube. Not worth much and relatively easy to do with heat/cold on the relative parts. They are struck with the core inside the outer ring, so 90, 180 or 360 doesn't work, since they can't come from the mint that way. That's Elizabeth on the bust.
