coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/12/2016 12:33 pm Nope. It is a sanded coin. The devices on the obverse are equally sanded (even the rims) On the reverse the sanding was more isolated to the outside edges of the coin. There is some on the Memorial, but it looks like they were making it more intentional on the rim area. On a Dryer Coin we see the rims rolled over and some scratches on the center of the coin: Report this Post to the Staff
