MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 09/13/2020 11:03 pm Could this be an Improperly Annealed Planchet or is it just damage? The rim and edge don't seem to have the same appearance. Thanks! Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 09/14/2020 05:50 am i'll agree with John1, PMD. It didn't leave the mint in this condition. Could be an environmental issue or a a a chemical reaction, both arrive back to PMD Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/14/2020 3:41 pm If it were dipped into acid the weight would be slight less than normal. But if the weight is normal, then it is damaged unknown. Not a plus for the coin though. But guessing it is slight less than normal weight (3.11 grams) Report this Post to the Staff
