coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/27/2017 9:10 pm I see rim Cuds on the left side of the obverse. What does the edge look like? Normal in shape or altered? Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 11/27/2017 9:10 pm My first thought is MAD obverse with rim-finning. In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020 In Memory of Tootallious 3-31-1964 to 4-15-2020 In Memory of T-BOP 10-12-1949 to 1-19-2024 Report this Post to the Staff
Bump111 Pillar of the Community United States 3325 Posts	Posted 11/27/2017 9:19 pm I will break it back out and look at it edge on. Thanks for the insights thus far. "Nummi rari mira sunt, si sumptus ferre potes." - Christophorus filius Scotiae Report this Post to the Staff

Bump111 Pillar of the Community United States 3325 Posts	Posted 11/27/2017 9:30 pm Edge is smooth all the way round, but a little thicker near "Liberty" where the rim is folded: "Nummi rari mira sunt, si sumptus ferre potes." - Christophorus filius Scotiae Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 11/27/2017 9:44 pm MAD at 5 o'clock strong, rim offset Cuds forming 8:30-10 oclock, could be the die clipped the collar...? Report this Post to the Staff
Bump111 Pillar of the Community United States 3325 Posts	Posted 11/27/2017 9:54 pm Appreciate your thoughts, Crazy. I'm starting to get a mental image of what happened. I thought it was a pretty cool strike to explore. Edit: If these '84s have one earlobe they're usually pretty boring in my book.
