There is a rim around where the hole is and there is no copper inside the hole, but it is clad. There is copper showing a little on the rim of the hole. Any ideas?

Is there any damage on the rim on the opposite side of the coin? __________________ Quote: Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

There is nothing on the opposite side to show where it was hammered on. __________________   01-08-2009, 10:50 PM   #6 (permalink) marmots newest noob you'll meet     Join Date: Oct 2008 Posts: 58 i think it was touched by a heated rod __________________ .(\_/) (o.O) (>< ) /_|_\ this is bunny. he will destroy all coins.unless we stop him   01-09-2009, 01:28 AM   #7 (permalink) TheNoost huldufolk     Join Date: May 2008 Location: Michigan Posts: 4,281 My Mood: ^possible.
