jerryc39 Pillar of the Community United States 3167 Posts	Posted 01/12/2016 2:07 pm looked decent for the price to me. VF25ish? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1846-Large-...refresh=true Report this Post to the Staff

moxking Rest in Peace United States 17900 Posts	Posted 01/12/2016 2:51 pm Yes, all those extrusions on the edge, most easily seen from the obverse photo from 3-5 o'clock is disconcerting. I'd check the edge of this immediately upon receipt to insure there is no 'line' around the two halves on the edge. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinHuntingDrew Pillar of the Community United States 4932 Posts	Posted 01/12/2016 9:41 pm Looks fine to me. Maybe you guys are just over-analyzing this? VF-25 details. IMHO, dug coin. Report this Post to the Staff
EFLargeCents Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 01/13/2016 08:21 am The edges look like the copper was extruded and folded over. This is something that just doesn't happen in a normal minting process nor is it something caused by corrosion. Only other possible explanations might be that the collar broke in multiple places or it is a cast counterfeit. Whatever the cause it is NOT normal. Report this Post to the Staff
