Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 07/23/2017 8:48 pm Called a "Folded Rim Fin"see it starting at 5 o'clock from the MAD lip. Nice pickup! OJC. This may seem an odd question, but does that coin have a rotated reverse? I have my reasons... Edited by Crazyb0 07/23/2017 8:56 pm Report this Post to the Staff

I have my reasons... The reverse is not rotated and I'm sure you do have your reasons, you nail a bunch of them! Report this Post to the Staff
Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 07/23/2017 10:26 pm OJC Generally, not always, MAD's (the major cause of rim finning) are directional, meaning the heavy looking rims are either 180 degrees out from obverse to reverse or on the same side. Just looked to me like yours wasn't that way, that's all. MADs that hit heavy on same side but more offset are off set strikes. Finning is a strike pressure problem. Report this Post to the Staff
