mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2955 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 6:34 pm This is a tad out of my knowledge base of errors, so just needing some different eyes on this. Found this coin roll hunting yesterday... Aside from light circulation, I also observe some post mint damage along the obverse rim. The reverse seems to be weakly struck or struck thru grease on Monticello. I want to possibly say rim finning going on, but not sure. Report this Post to the Staff

mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2955 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 6:58 pm Yeah, I saw the slight MAD, and the other thing I might add is it could be a slightly tilted die. Coop might shed some observation here Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 96250 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 7:02 pm I'm not too sure that the stuff along the rim is PMD though - notice how it is 'under' the lettering? The raised devices above the field seem unaffected by the deep trenches Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5775 Posts	Posted 12/31/2022 09:54 am Nice example and congrats. (Thanks for the ID Stoneman. I was about to fall for one of the usual erroneous IDs; a Cud.) Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.
