Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 10/12/2019 4:54 pm I think the die was clashed and over polished, maybe more than once. The devices have been effected by the harsh polishing as well showing Die Deterioration. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/12/2019 6:14 pm The worn die is forming die flow lines around the device, making the device to look larger. If this were a doubled die issue, then the other devices around it would be affected by enlargement. Your coin shows that, but is still the same cause. VLDS die state when the coin was struck. Not a doubled die. Report this Post to the Staff
