allranger Pillar of the Community United States 1391 Posts	Posted 12/18/2013 11:09 pm It looks like someone took a hammer to the coin while it was on a hard surface. Where it is no longer round you know something happened post-mint. Also, the abrasion lines all going in the same direction on the obverse would seem to indicate it was aggressively cleaned. Maybe with a belt sander. Hard to say. Report this Post to the Staff
