NoPoMoCo Valued Member United States 403 Posts	Posted 05/18/2016 9:02 pm It does seem bizarre. If another coin with the same diameter caused the flattop damage to the M, it couldn't have caused the horseshoeing damage to the U at the same time. The N also seems consistently truncated. Three coordinated hits? Report this Post to the Staff

NoPoMoCo Valued Member United States 403 Posts	Posted 05/19/2016 08:35 am How about a rolling hit, where the rim of the other coin rolled along the tops of the devices during a single interaction? Report this Post to the Staff

If it appears that I should add a photo or 2, I'll do it. Quote: They probably all happened at the same time. (looks like a minor RPM as well) I did not see an RPM - Coop - what do you see that makes you say minor RPM? Report this Post to the Staff
Pete2226 Pillar of the Community United States 3331 Posts	Posted 05/19/2016 12:37 pm I decided to make a comparison with a "Normal" UNUM. I am still not seeing an RPM, though. Report this Post to the Staff
