DrDon Pillar of the Community United States 2624 Posts	Posted 11/26/2011 12:24 am My first thought was rim damage that got pressed onto the coin.Problem is I do not see damage to the rim. Also it does not look "struck through". There are some real pro's who will be along later, they will have an answer. Report this Post to the Staff
vtcivilwar New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 11/26/2011 08:38 am One thing I forgot to point out is that the line is raised and the copper flowed up in to the crack of the die? Maybe that goes without saying to the people on this fourm, but thought I would mention it. Thanks Henry Report this Post to the Staff
ikandiggit Pillar of the Community Canada 1166 Posts	Posted 11/26/2011 09:22 am Gut instinct says PMD. A thin strip of copper was sheared from the rim as DrDon says. Wear obliterated the evidence on the rim. Wait for coppercoins or coop or Mike to give their opinions. Report this Post to the Staff
