ccrider Valued Member United States 97 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 1:27 pm Hi folks, Can someone tell me if he both sides of this coin are just cases of extreme wear ( PMD) or is it something that happened in the mint? I am learning more every day, thanks to you folks and some very good references. I know I read something about this condition but heck if I can remember where it was. Thanks in advance, Chris Report this Post to the Staff

ccrider Valued Member United States 97 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 2:14 pm The only reason I did not jump to that conclusion at first is due to the massive width of the letters in USA. I didn't know if that would occur if tumbled in a dryer. Thank you, Chris Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/28/2019 5:56 pm One thing that is missing to be a Dryer Coin is the rim wrapping over the edges of the coin. I feel the devices were flattened. PSD. Report this Post to the Staff
