CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 5:34 pm This proof popped out of a circulated roll. To me, it looks like Strike Doubling on the obverse. The reverse has some kind of fold on the top half of the perimeter. The edge is fine, other than two dings in the southwest area.

jjwabraham Valued Member United States 288 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 6:01 pm Nice find, but I'm not seeing what you are describing. There appears to be no difference between the top half of the rim and the bottom half. Is it possible to add an arrow to the picture where you see the thing in question? Report this Post to the Staff

tweak800 Pillar of the Community United States 1249 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 8:29 pm I wouldnt say rim finning on that coin . It was a proof so it had a really sharp cornered rim. Sadly it was circulated and beaten up It is probably just damage but still a proof . I would keep it and be looking for notiching ;) Report this Post to the Staff

tweak800 Pillar of the Community United States 1249 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 9:24 pm Silver only reason I even thought that is because I been buying prrof rolls. Did you know that a prrof roll of pennies won't fit in the tubes? You have to take 2 of them out for the tube to close properly thats how big a difference is on those rims. I was shocked by it hahaha. I thought to myself well imagine that. I don't know why but its little things like that that really get me Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 10/21/2015 9:35 pm Agreed with tweak800. Proofs usually have a notably thicker rim. Report this Post to the Staff
Numisma Pillar of the Community United States 4963 Posts	Posted 10/22/2015 01:58 am I would still go with rim finning. Also, nobody has pointed out the collar clash around 3:30 to 5:00 on the obverse rim. Report this Post to the Staff
