snailking1 Pillar of the Community United States 1566 Posts	Posted Yesterday 7:30 pm Crenellated Rim Pretty sure I got this right Certainly the first time I've come across one of these! According to Error-Ref: Quote: It's not clear why crenellations form or why they occur so rarely. https://www.error-ref.com/?s=reed#:...0so%20rarely. Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5827 Posts	Posted Yesterday 9:25 pm Interesting thread. "Definition: Reeding prolongations generated as the newly-struck coin is pushed up and out of the collar. The reeding extensions always point toward the face struck by the anvil die. They stick up vertically from the junction between the design rim and the edge, forming set of sharp prongs that look like a picket fence or the battlements of a castle" (**NOTE- Italics and underline is by me.) I'm not sure your reeds are sticking up like a picket fence. They do seem slightly raised though. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Edited by Petespockets55 Yesterday 9:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff

True, they don't stick up a lot, but they have had 36 years to wear down a little. Edited by snailking1 Yesterday 9:41 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Haven't we all worn down a little over the last 36 years. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
