My2cent Valued Member United States 484 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 12:22 pm I was just wondering what caused the rim of the coin to look like this, all flattened. It's a slightly larger circumference and thinner with very little reeding in one area. The Reeding could be just damage issues though. These are all just reasons I am asking someone else.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 1:01 pm It looks like a slight MAD coin. (Mis-Aligned-Die) Usually the anvil die is stationary, and the hammer die is adjustable. So it they are not in alignment, it will alter one side of the coin. When they are too far out of alignment, then the devices fall over the edge of the coin. Note the examples above. Note even the opposite side of the coin is affected. These are the collectables when you can see the devices falling over the edge of the coin and the weakness on the reverse. Without this, they are normal coins. Report this Post to the Staff
Ytee64 New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 02/10/2021 4:51 pm Mr. Coop, You are always so helpful, true to the handle "Bedrock of The Community"...I am related to some Indiana 'Coopers'. Anyway I also had a question about something struck in a Roosevelt dime and don't know what it could be. If you notice, it is that added wrinkle in his face, it didn't look like damage to me, it looks like it was struck in, please advise...thank you again. Ytee64 Report this Post to the Staff
