M_d_in_guy Pillar of the Community Canada 1049 Posts	Posted 01/07/2015 12:20 pm the weight should be around 5.07 grams, it's probably PMD, done by sanding or machined. If the weight is bang on then you may have something IMO. Report this Post to the Staff
M_d_in_guy Pillar of the Community Canada 1049 Posts	Posted 01/07/2015 12:22 pm another point, it's well circulated and if it was mint damage it would have been found long before now IMO. Report this Post to the Staff
Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2519 Posts	Posted 01/07/2015 12:29 pm Sorry, it looks like the obverse was sanded off after it was put into circulation. PMD. Report this Post to the Staff

wireman09 Pillar of the Community Canada 972 Posts	Posted 01/07/2015 3:50 pm canadamike See what a Craftsman S280 Sander running at 1800rpm can do. If only struck on one side the obverse planchets collar would be seen. Thanks for sharing. Report this Post to the Staff
timnic44 Pillar of the Community Canada 535 Posts	Posted 01/07/2015 5:02 pm Looks like engraved letters faintly in the middle. Someone sanded it off and tried and turned it into a "love token" Report this Post to the Staff
Fixguy Pillar of the Community Canada 532 Posts	Posted 01/07/2015 9:44 pm I agree on PMD the blank side is too perfect for 30 plus years in circulation Edited by Fixguy 01/07/2015 9:45 pm Report this Post to the Staff
