I'm not sure if to many magicians coins were created out of cents. I would think the milling of the cents would not be a easy task compared to the larger coins. Wait for a expert to chime in with their opinion. cladhunter13 Report this Post to the Staff

Is the lip on on the edge the same all around or dies it vary? https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...R62_EDGE.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...keldaddy.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...ime_1985.jpg Report this Post to the Staff
driverdriver2 New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 10/07/2010 07:42 am Hello coop, The Lip is the same all away around the edge. It looks like your second photo you have listed of the Jefferson nickle. Can you tell me how this happens? I think it's kinda neat, my first "oddity" coin. Thank you to all responders.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/07/2010 4:04 pm Usually the coin get partially in the collar and partially out of the collar, not restraining the roundness of the whole edge on of the coin. On reeded coins only part of the reeding shows. Sometimes this can even fin the edge of the coin upward or make the coin a strong MAD coin. https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...ime_1985.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...keldaddy.jpg https://www.coincommunity.com/forum...addy_REV.jpg But there is another cause of an area that leaves the rim rough and uneven. That is the removal of a coin in a "Good Luck" holder. When the coin is removed it reveal how it was pressed into the hold and now the coin is ruined. So best to leave these in the holder. At least they are sell able in tact. Report this Post to the Staff
