Dearborn Moderator United States 97062 Posts	Posted 01/26/2023 3:20 pm I have no idea where that bulge is coming from. I expected to see a dent on the reverse. Collecting since 1972.

Unless you were they when it happened, we'll never know, we'd only be guessing. It doesn't really matter, damage is damage. Report this Post to the Staff

The only thing I can think of is it was heated enough to bulge, then someone took a hammer to it afterwards. This happened a while back to return the coin to original color.
