Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 10/25/2015 09:18 am The devices appear to me to be too close to the edge to be a broadstrike. Looks like it is heavily worn...even sanded. What is the diameter of this coin? Edited by Pete2226 10/25/2015 09:21 am Report this Post to the Staff
Papadoc75 Valued Member United States 441 Posts	Posted 10/25/2015 10:03 am The diameter is only 17mm. Report this Post to the Staff

Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3330 Posts	Posted 10/25/2015 10:13 am With a diameter 0.9 mm below spec and no reeding I can see in your photos, I think some kind of damage. I am thinking probably not a Dryer Coin, though - no evidence of edges starting to fold over. Outside of the possibility of it being sanded down intentionally, I can't think of how. Perhaps one of those rock polisher thingys? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/25/2015 10:37 am To me it looks like it might have been acid dipped. But it is PSD. At one time the coin was normal. Now it is not. Report this Post to the Staff
Papadoc75 Valued Member United States 441 Posts	Posted 10/25/2015 10:43 am Definitely bad things have been done to this poor coin. My 7 year old likes it so it's his now. Report this Post to the Staff
