Pocket Piece - Who Has One?

Just using my thumb, getting a nice shine on this coin.

Thanks Drew. The sulver one was on a belt buckle my dad had.

State of of the pocket, I like that. Looking good.

Sorry guys for the lack of a update lately. My Ike dollar is riding in my wallet and my silver eagle is on a toning rotation at the moment. I been wearing shorts a lot and afraid they could slide out so its break time for the eagle. It's taking a spring holiday in a old 1930's tathered pulp comic book I bought at salvage.

Anyone else having an issue like this with their pocket pieces?

2 of my small grinders and my Ellis Island seem to have developed a "partial collar strike" effect to them.

I first noticed it on my $20 for $20 and thought maybe that was just how Canada struck these coins but I check my $20 for $20 Batman VS Superman when it came and the reeding was normal.

I then thought maybe the constant hammering of the coins against each other was causing the rims to peen over on the reeding.

I try to keep a grinder between each of of the dollars. So I could see how the small ones might get hammered but then why is the Ellis Island dollar starting to do it?
