T-BOP Rest in Peace United States 18456 Posts	Posted 05/27/2016 10:15 pm The question is what's with the reverse ? Is it wear or is it a weak strike ? compared to obverse AU-50-53 BN Report this Post to the Staff
mamastinky Valued Member United States 441 Posts	Posted 05/27/2016 11:20 pm T-BOP I really think this one has strike weakness due to the reverse die state. If you look at the left wheat ear you will notice that a chunk of the die was loose, and it appears to have formed a partial Cud as a result of the metal flowing into the pressure gap created by that loose chunk of die. My best guess. Report this Post to the Staff

mdrosophila Pillar of the Community United States 724 Posts	Posted 05/28/2016 10:36 am Badthad, I do not see any wear as well. The color is very natural and pleasant. I will post another set of picture if there is any mint luster left. If it is, it could be MS63BN. Report this Post to the Staff
