On the reverse there appears to be a secondary rim that almost goes in a circle around the whole coin. You can see it striking through "E Pluribus Unum" at the top and continue all the way through "United States of". What is this? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/02/2015 10:48 pm Get you eyes familiar with that is normal, so when a variety is in front of you, then it leaps out at you! It takes a while for the eye to know what is the normal size and the hub doubled sizes. Note the dots. Also the bottom horizontals of the EPU. Now your on your way.
