So even if this is nothing I still find it neat!

Looking through my coins I found this 1994 Loonie with "Flaming Beads"

The reverse shows the beads "stretching" to the rim at every corner (some more then others). The letters also show "spiking" towards the rim.

The "flaming" beads and "spiking" letters are also present on the obverse, but to a lesser extent.

Thought it was worth sharing...

Wonderful example of Die Deterioration... thanks for sharing!
