coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/21/2016 10:19 pm Probably worked over by sanding the reverse down and removing the rims. Obverse looks like the head was worked over and buffed off the reeds on the outside rim. Typical coin that was altered and then put back into circulation. Not a lamination issue. Just an altered coin. PSD Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/21/2016 10:54 pm I think people who buy an altered coin are in the same class as the people who alter them. So much stuff that is junk get sold way to high and stuff that should be a premium coin will go for a bit of nothing on ebay. Report this Post to the Staff
