coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 03/08/2011 7:49 pm Very good. Correct answer. Of course it could be struck through an obstruction that fell out...how could we tell the difference? Edited by coppercoins 03/08/2011 7:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 03/08/2011 7:59 pm wont it be more pronounced? and it wont have the "ripped" effect. i cant really explain that, but if you showed me 3 different pictures, 1 with Lamination, 1 with struck through, and 1 with PMD, I would be able to tell the difference.

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 03/08/2011 8:04 pm You are correct - a struck through that fell out would have a crisp edge and wouldn't have the tearing effect the edge of this cavity has. You got it! Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 03/11/2011 12:37 pm This one has the potential to be tricky to figure out due to all of the extraneous damage on the rim, one could easily think PMD if you do not look for other diagnostics as well. Adam deserves a conga line of dancing fruit for that effort Report this Post to the Staff
