I think it shows signs of tampering, given the very deep marks on the obverse, as well as evidence on the reverse from what I can see. Report this Post to the Staff
elsjls Valued Member United States 168 Posts	Posted 02/25/2009 10:04 pm Thank you for moving it. I had no clue where it was from. Ok now I see it in the catalog of world coins. I found it in a mix bag of coins did not know what was going on. But I think your right with the rev. Looks like someone might have had a good time on a grinder.
