pls Rest in Peace United States 1729 Posts	Posted 08/27/2008 6:30 pm Could it have gotten caught in something to produce this much wear? Or are the wear marks obviously from a sander? Report this Post to the Staff

limted New Member United States 39 Posts	Posted 08/27/2008 11:14 pm what I dont understand is the center of coin isn't worn as much looks like a ring around edge Report this Post to the Staff
foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 08/27/2008 11:35 pm The abrasion marks make it an obviously damaged coin. Why it wears a certain way after it is damaged is anyone's guess. It is not an error coin, that's for sure:-) Thanks, Bill Report this Post to the Staff
