coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/01/2010 8:23 pm It looks suspicious to me. The edge where the clip is on the last image shows a rim on the rim. It shouldn't be there. What appears as a Blakesley affect is in the wrong area, The rims don't fade like they should on an incomplete planchet. So I question it. I would hang on to it and see what others think for now. Report this Post to the Staff

timsumrall Pillar of the Community United States 1256 Posts	Posted 12/02/2010 10:26 am Would one expect to see the Blakesley effect on both sides? Also, what is Fishtailing? Is it the "fading" mentioned above? Report this Post to the Staff
