spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 08/08/2018 12:08 am That's a great example, congrats! Notice how strong the rims are. That's a sign that it is more likely to be a Greaser than a weak strike or a thin planchet.

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 08/08/2018 04:52 am Very nice find. If it was a weak strike I think the rims would lack sharpness. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 08/09/2018 03:20 am with spruett001 and John1, concerning the rims look pretty solid. If weight is within specs, I'd lean toward struck though grease as a likely suspect. Thanks, Doug. Edited by Halo1st 08/09/2018 1:08 pm Report this Post to the Staff
