Dottir Pillar of the Community Canada 864 Posts	Posted 10/24/2010 02:27 am Here is a fun coin to post and hear feedback about. It has a lot of extra metal built up on he bottom of the reverse. Yes, I'm making up for lost time scanning and posting some coins I collected while my scanning ability was down. Its fun to participate with pictures! Report this Post to the Staff

Dottir Pillar of the Community Canada 864 Posts	Posted 10/24/2010 09:07 am Interesting effects. Thanks ;) I also see a lot of the effects like at the top of the reverse of Lincolns, to varying degrees and extents. The "more wear there" because of the obverse design was explained to me a bit. I haven't read up much about the minting tools and processes yet, but I guess I should soon to easier understand effects and what I might be seeing.
