Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 05/01/2015 5:45 pm Need some help here. Please diagnose. Is it a known variety or one off or what? At fist I thought it was pushed metal from a ding but there is no displacement crater. Also, the mm looks to be filled on the top loop as well. There is a hit on the left side of top loop but not big enough to displace so much metal into the loop imo. So what do I have here? Just pocket change or a find?
