coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/25/2020 7:58 pm Not sure what the question is? (but never held be back before answering) Solution one: But I'm thinking you are considering the size of the devices? The die looks like it may have been over polished to remove a clash. The reduction on the fields removes some sub devices, making them smaller looking on coins. (middle coin) Solution two: What is the weight of the coin? If less than 2.5 grams, then it maybe a thin planchet. Thus making the strike and the rim lower than normal? Solution three: The the weight is normal and the only weakness is on the rim at 4:00-5:00, it may have taken a hit? (Can tell what the reverse looks like with no image) Are you seeing something else I missed? Report this Post to the Staff

I thought that this might've been a less detailed strike, but going back I saw that my lighting was funky. Nothing out of the ordinary! Just lighting issues like always. Report this Post to the Staff
