Mrhakfbacon Pillar of the Community United States 638 Posts	Posted Today 16H 13M ago Hard to tell if this is PMD or not, the areas of weakness especially the reverse look like examples I've seen before. Linked below is an example of what I mean, albeit more extreme: https://coins.ha.com/itm/errors/196...ption-071515 Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21928 Posts	Posted Today 10H 28M ago To me it is just a worn nickel. Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19634 Posts	Posted Today 10H 23M ago Agree--looks to be circulation wear typical of a hard working, long serving '66. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 108217 Posts	Posted Today 10H 21M ago looks like a well worn Greaser. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 79655 Posts	Posted Today 8H 57M ago Maybe a Greaser? Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

HGK3 Pillar of the Community United States 592 Posts	Posted Today 4H 45M ago With the symmetric poorly formed rims at k6 on the reverse and k12 on the obverse as well as symmetric weakness of the strike in the center of the devices, I'm inclined to agree with the weak strike idea, perhaps with a slightly tilted die as well. Weak or no rims and symmetry of weakness in devices on both faces almost always means weak strike over grease. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 79655 Posts	Posted Today 2H 41M ago Now that I look at it again, I agree with it being a Weak Strike. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Interesting observation! I need to bookmark this post for future reference. Report this Post to the Staff
