Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7516 Posts	Posted 12/29/2020 11:52 pm to CCF At first glance it looks like a Greaser,and then when noticing those patterned,localized lines over the area raises a different question! Maybe PMD ? Report this Post to the Staff
Reguy65 New Member United States 7 Posts	Posted 12/30/2020 12:11 am Hey Chase007, It does have scratches that are definitely PMD, but I think that would be expected for a coin circulating 27 years. The affected area is perfectly smooth with just the surface scratches you noted, so I ruled out wear or mechanical grinding, for why the detail reliefs are missing. Report this Post to the Staff
