Dragg Valued Member United States 181 Posts	Posted 08/01/2021 02:00 am It has Cracked Rim on both sides and Partial lettering in some spots on both sides? The rim looks like it is almost gone above the last letter S in States ? The shape of the Snake ? And the F.G Initials almost 100% gone? I would really appreciate some info on this please Edited by Dragg 08/01/2021 03:03 am Report this Post to the Staff

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7147 Posts	Posted 08/02/2021 2:49 pm IMO...Both obv and rev. shows signs of a MAD (mis-aliened die) or tilted die, often the result on a single side but not on both. Use the search box to find more examples...good luck Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/02/2021 8:39 pm Or a circulated coin with over polishing on the dies. Pretty much a normal coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7147 Posts	Posted 08/02/2021 10:12 pm I've got to disagree with coop on this one. "Pretty much a normal coin" Yes on the wear and not a really big deal on the FG initials (yes-caused by an over-polished die) But the OPs main question was about the coins rims and I stick with my answer.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/03/2021 1:09 pm Normal in the sense, as a circulation damaged coin. Die polishing affects the fields. Field reduction makes the sub devices go away first. Thus the weakening on the some of the devices. (Die events). But sometimes they really get worked over: But most of the raised devices on this coin are distorted from circulation. So to me it a normal damaged coin with a possible die event.
