Hflirn Pillar of the Community United States 586 Posts	Posted 10/13/2017 3:47 pm This coin also has oddly weird similarities to an 09 VDB of mine. Both have a silver like undertone, both seem to have damage from what may be over strike, and both seem to have what I refer to as "eye" markers. Test strike, PMD, or somehow something common that I haven't noticed. Either way it's weird to me. There are too many eye marks to count on both coins and it seems to get in the way of everything Lol! The silver undertone doesn't seem to be on the obverse of the 64 which in all honesty looks perfectly normal. Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 10/13/2017 8:32 pm The 64 looks clear coated, too much glob to right of Memorial. LWC is a ground in deposit like substance, remind me of gypsum (inside sheetrock) that the coin was ground and scraped upon, got wet then chemically adhered to the copper alloy through a corrosive process...in other words something oxidized imside the areas not normally rubbed off in contact. It's just damage. Do you know where your children have been every moment of their lives? Well, you got anything better? Edited by Crazyb0 10/13/2017 8:34 pm Report this Post to the Staff
