@john1, just so that I can learn, is there something about the periphery of these LMCs that predisposes this area to plating bubbles/split plating? Or is it just seemingly random and the pattern on the OP's coin is just as likely as them showing up anywhere else? Perhaps the shear loads are higher near the rim and thus thin spots in the plating more likely to appear? Any insight would be interesting to me. Thx.
