Peaceman Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 09/27/2012 11:53 am Here's another one I put to the side to look at later. I figured that it was a PMD but the more I look at it, the more I think it to be the real thing. Report this Post to the Staff

enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 09/27/2012 12:00 pm It is indented and not raised which suggests to me that it is simply PMD Report this Post to the Staff
Peaceman Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 09/27/2012 12:16 pm Interesting... The reverse letters by the rim are raised. The obv are recessed... but how in the world could you do it? Maybe but this coin inbetween two other coins on a vice? I'm interested how you can make a letter so clear so close to the number "7" on the date... Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 09/27/2012 1:03 pm Both sides display a rim groove from another coin being smashed into this one and some of the impressions are on top of the peripheral devices, conclusive evidence of PMD. Report this Post to the Staff

Peaceman Valued Member United States 434 Posts	Posted 09/27/2012 7:52 pm I can see the rim indentation above AMERICA however, why would lettering be visable exactly where the rim is pressed into the coin? Report this Post to the Staff

I see what you're saying and it has me puzzled too..I agree the coin look like it was a squeeze job as far as the rest goes..but can't see how those raised remnants of letters got on the reverse.
