Circulation wear can mask the metal grain exposed by the lamination and make it appear to be PMD. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/01/2014 5:47 pm I've seen them like that before. If it were devices from another coin, how would the design transfer to the head and the field without making a strong impression on the tops of the devices? The planchet peeled away some of the lamination. Report this Post to the Staff
