NY Islander Pillar of the Community United States 981 Posts	Posted 05/31/2024 6:43 pm Serious damage radiating from the center on the reverse of this 1966 LMC. Not familiar with MD, or PMD like this. The obverse, rim and edge has very little damage that would indicate PMD. Thoughts? Thanks. "We are all flawed, some MD and some PMD." NYI Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96985 Posts	Posted 05/31/2024 7:17 pm That has to be damaged.. sure is odd looking. I was expecting to see heavy radial flow lines. Do you think somebody tried to mimic that? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8775 Posts	Posted 05/31/2024 7:51 pm Definitely PSD. Who knows how, except the person who did it. Looks like it has a slight rotation to it too and flattened rims on the reverse to go along with the outward scratches. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

NY Islander Pillar of the Community United States 981 Posts	Posted 05/31/2024 8:43 pm The edge photos seem to reveal highly heated metal overlapping and clinging to the edge of the coin. Does anyone have examples of experiments with a drill that matches this coin? "We are all flawed, some MD and some PMD." NYI Edited by NY Islander 05/31/2024 8:52 pm Report this Post to the Staff
