I bought this coin without much knowledge about it. I liked the look. I have a specific question about the minting process. We're these coins rolled through a press to make the impression? The reason I ask is because as you can see in the photos, there is a little bit of a curve on one end like it was rolled. I want to know if this coin is "as minted" or PMD. Any info would be great!
Roller presses were a common thing at the time and within that region. It certainly would be very reasonable to assume the slight bend is from the minting, though I personally am uncertain how to, with certainty, attribute a minting process bend vs a PMD bend.
