Edge is a little wide and rims are huge. Opinions? Dang, pics scrambled-up again.

Hey Fioti,

This is what is affectionately known as a "Drier coin." It has been post mint damaged by rolling around a clothes drier drum for a good while. No added value, sorry.

It's not a Dryer Coin (the interior is not pummeled), but it is a case of post-strike damage.

This is a "drier". IMHO. What gets me is the 1st one having rims with the main devices looking worn.

Well, I guess that's two strikes for me. One, for not attributing the damage correctly and two for not being able to spell:(. Thanks for the correction, Mike!
