rhinoe78 New Member United States 18 Posts	Posted 04/09/2021 11:54 am I'm new to coins and I'm trying to soak up all the knowledge I can get. Could this be a misaligned dye? Or just regular wear. Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21646 Posts	Posted 04/09/2021 12:03 pm Hard to tell if it is a Misaligned DIE (note spelling) when you don't show all the rims. Please show photos of the complete coin facing right side p. Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19229 Posts	Posted 04/09/2021 12:06 pm Hard to tell from the photos--a little soft and not showing the full coin. Light source seems to have introduced a rose/salmon-like color. As of now, I'm thinking Die Deterioration coupled with a fair amount of circulation wear. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/09/2021 1:01 pm Looks more like a Struck Through Grease fill on both sides. Like the operator wiped the dies with a cloth, moving all the grease into the outer areas of the dies. (Note the affected areas before they disappear, they get wider as the fill of the devices get totally filled: If it were DDD, the devices would be normal, then the fields would be affected. I'm not seeing that on this coin. Report this Post to the Staff
