Sap Moderator Australia 16816 Posts	Posted 10/23/2022 6:52 pm Agreed; those are very typical "mount marks" from having turned a coin into a piece of jewellery. Someone, at some point after the coin was struck, turned this dime into a Roosevelt pin by soldering a pin onto the reverse. Someone else, some time later, tried to turn it back into a dime again by snapping the pin off and grinding down the stumps. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

The forum software likes to show images landscape (wide) as opposed to portrait (tall), unless the image file is tagged a certain way. Did you use the Pixlr Desktop Image Optimizer or the Pixlr Mobile Image Optimizer to crop/rotate? I am curious, because in my testing it seemed to solve that problem.
