I realize the photos are not rotated fully.....I did that intentionally to show the dome more clearly. Edited by Wildhare 01/28/2018 6:30 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34427 Posts	Posted 01/28/2018 6:57 pm @WH, can you post a super-close-up view of the dome? It looks a little like some metal has been "smushed" up, which would make PMD the most likely culprit. A closer view might provide additional evidence to help us make a determination.

Wildhare Valued Member United States 219 Posts	Posted 01/29/2018 8:03 pm Thanks all.....I found several more from the same era with similar, but not as severe PMD. I think you are correct. Coinfrog....as stated in the original post, I posted the photos that way intentionally to show the area in question. Report this Post to the Staff
