    My friend found this in his travels. Is it possible one side od a coin could be completely blank and another still show an image? I think this is different from that. What do you think? 20210714_005231.jpg 20210714_005231.jpg 20210714_005231.jpg

    It’s wear just not normal wear. It’s been helped to wear in that fashion. Just another form of PMD.
