Spence Moderator United States 34431 Posts	Posted 08/08/2018 4:14 pm A decent amount of the inscription is missing--nice find. Also, look at the obv rim from about 7 o'clock through 12 o'clock. Perhaps some slight misalignment of the dies?

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 08/09/2018 03:45 am Quote: The reverse not so hot, but the obverse is nice. I'm thinking the reverse is nice as well. Shows weakness and a slight misalignment as well, that leans towards the opposing side compared to the obverse showing the rim gutter. If weight and diameter show to be in spec, I'd go with Struck Through Grease as a likely suspect. Thanks, Doug. Edited by Halo1st 08/09/2018 03:47 am Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74945 Posts	Posted 08/09/2018 11:47 am Check the weight. If it's normal, thsn it's a Struck Through Grease issue. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
