John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 05:19 am Don't think it's missing a layer, looks more like environmental damage. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
papatony Pillar of the Community United States 808 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 11:39 am Hey John1, is it possible file marks on the obverse ? maybe planchet damage? Report this Post to the Staff
chzman Pillar of the Community United States 1137 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 11:45 am Those abrasions do not appear to be on the rim of the coin. Could it be a defective planchet? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 7:07 pm Just rolling marks from finishing the stocl material to make planchet from. They don't always disappear. Note they run in different directions as they are struck in different directions on the planchets. (Also shows this isn't on the dies) Report this Post to the Staff

bishftl Pillar of the Community United States 1020 Posts	Posted 04/28/2012 9:45 pm but why is the surface not shiny like normal, it's very dull, and on the reverse it looks like a layer of something didn't get completely finished. see the shiny area and then look at the rough parts around that. it feathers down to the shiny part. and the "D" looks odd, are those punched manually on 1996? Just curious to learn what causes this, don't mean to pry. Report this Post to the Staff
