I thought the exact same thing when I first saw it Waynoah83. But then I looked closely at the rim and saw that the inside of the rim edge is as crisp as the day it was made. I just don't see how anyone can sand it and not hit the inside of the rim

But now you got me to thinking. If it is a grease filled then would there be the lines that Winoah83 is referring to

Not to be contrary but isn't the question directly related to the topic. If I am supposed to edit the post I'm not sure what to edit it to. Again I'm new here so I just need clarification on the subject. Thanks

OK class, how can we prove that the devices were not removed? (Educational question) The obviously clue.

weigh the coin , if the devices were sanded the coin will weigh less. Or more obvious, zinc would be exposed , I did not see that at the bottom

Good original thought. But I was considering, the rims. If the devices were removed, the rims would show that the coin was altered. When we look at a coin through a scope, you forget how close you are looking. Next time you have a coin under the scope, put a toothpick on top of the coin. It looks like a pencil. Then you realize that the devices can't be removed without affecting the bust or the rim. You would see the damage on the coin. And as already mentioned, the zinc would also be altered. The OPs coin does not show this as happening.
