RamairOlds Valued Member United States 129 Posts	Posted 09/03/2013 6:25 pm I was just finishing my last roll of the box and I found this coin. I have never seen anything like it but I'm sure someone here knows what it is. I think it's a 2006 but you can't really tell. The coin is brand new. Report this Post to the Staff

RamairOlds Valued Member United States 129 Posts	Posted 09/03/2013 7:08 pm Why would the reverse be affected this way....from a insufficient pressure? Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 09/04/2013 01:47 am That is a nice clogged die example because both sides are affected A very weak strike would not only affect the design detail but the rims as well, leaving them weak and rounded. Heavy grease strikes tend to have well-formed rims because the metal that cannot expand into the clogged die detail has to go somewhere so it flows outward to the periphery Report this Post to the Staff
