CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2736 Posts	Posted 09/19/2021 01:23 am Weighs 2.5 grams. The coin has a gritty looking texture which, given the weight, I'm not sure is the grease or plating debris. "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/19/2021 6:37 pm Could be gritty plating, with zinc dust below the plating with a Grease Fill die issue. (note the size of the devices that are there? They are wider from the grease blockage and height of the devices are shorter. Full rims. Report this Post to the Staff
