KeepTheChange Valued Member United States 358 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 12:24 am "This is a fissure that opened up in the coin metal strip during rolling out of the strip. Tensile forces generated during rolling caused the metal to stretch out and finally break. That's why you see characteristic bifacial beveling on both sides of the fissure."

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 12:27 am This is coin damaged . Note the rim is altered. A sure sign it happened after the strike. Report this Post to the Staff
KeepTheChange Valued Member United States 358 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 12:29 am coop...mike diamond himself confirmed this as a fissure. It is legitimate Report this Post to the Staff

Scuba1 Valued Member United States 356 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 12:51 am ok, just asking I can see where coop is right about the damaged rim and I'm not questioning Mike D. The jaw bone and cheek area just looked weird to me, almost like some type of acid damage..... . I'm out on this one...... Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7028 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 01:05 am I think the obverse "rim issue" that coop and others are seeing is the reflection of the 2x2s clear film. Can you photo it outside the 2x2 to clear this up? Report this Post to the Staff
KeepTheChange Valued Member United States 358 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 01:06 am what he is seeing is a piece of lint in the first pic of the obverse...you can clearly see it better in the second image Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 01:11 am I'll have to look further into this. Thanks for the heads up. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 04/01/2021 04:20 am I recommend you remove it from the 2x2 and take/post new pics. Then put it in a new Air-Tite. Looks cool and must have a decent value. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
