fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3660 Posts	Posted 09/28/2019 11:31 am I agree with all the upthread comments regarding post-mint damage. Metal flow and discoloration can also result from electrical current heating the coin repeatedly over time. One possibility is that this coin was used to replace a fuse in an old fuse box (which is also a really good way to put lives at risk and burn down a house). Just my Two Cents' worth, which respectfully is double this coin's value. Report this Post to the Staff
Panther Pillar of the Community United States 751 Posts	Posted 09/28/2019 2:34 pm Mike; I checked out the 1944-D So called error coin. What in your opinion is the cause of that rippling effect. It seems all that guy sells is coins, and with 5099 positive feedback it appears he's honest. Dan Report this Post to the Staff
mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2738 Posts	Posted 09/29/2019 4:00 pm I have no doubt he's honest, just mistaken. As to the cause of the rippling, folks have speculated about rotating wire brushes, acid, heat, or various combinations. I really don't know. But it's not something that could emerge from a press and it's distinct from Die Deterioration, coins struck through multiply-struck, multiply-shifted caps, and other errors that can produce superficially similar appearances.
