spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 01/14/2018 10:20 pm I wouldn't necessarily call it a natural result of circulation. Someone may have intentionally sanded the plating off of the rim (and a few other places as collateral damage).

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 01/14/2018 10:52 pm I have noticed similar coins when CRHing, some more advanced than that. Not sure exactly what is the cause, is PMD, not a mint error. My theory is either a Dryer Coin not bounced around long or a coin caught in a belted coin counter, eithe rubbing on the belt or caught within the mechanism.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/15/2018 12:12 pm Probably sanded the rim area only that would make gray walls on the coin. PSD Another spendable coin. "Hi ho, hi ho, its back to work we go." Edited by coop 01/15/2018 12:13 pm Report this Post to the Staff
