ksammut Pillar of the Community United States 1003 Posts	Posted 03/02/2014 08:37 am Here is a coin I found in a bag of random foreign. I thought this coin was neat looking. Did this coin get struck through an Obverse and Reverse Die Cap or is it normal? Report this Post to the Staff

Bit hard to read the date, but maybe 2000. As for the second part of the question, I wouldn't have a clue. Steve :) :) :) Report this Post to the Staff

It looks like an acid bath or just heavy ware from washer or driveway. also the Thailand y183 1 Baht (1986-2008) appears nickel in color yours seems bronze, is that just lighting?

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
