the coin is fairly beat up from circulation, and the lighting is too intense, so it's hard to distinguish from the other dings and gouges. Is the mark incuse (sunken in) or relief (raised up)?
Hi
ttkoo, Thanks for your comment. I take another shot of this 20c coin under
natural light. The coin is certainly fairly beat up from circulation. It appears to be as what you have described as
PMD (
Post Mint Damaged). Under the natural light, the mark is incuse, while under bright light it appears to be relief.
In conclusion this is just a common 1981 20c coin. I must say though it was fun of going through the process of the so called '
treasure hunt'. Thanks again. Have a good day.
