Not many, but I just responded in another thread where there was a post made by somebody who has been a member longer than I have.
Boy ! A post made by somebody who has been a CT member longer than I have :eek: Sure don't see that very often. Your answer has pretty much been...
That's what is called finning. On this coin it's minimal, but it is a fairly common thing to find, and on virtually any denomination. Finning can...
Only one thing I think that could be - an AT project gone bad.
No way of knowing because rounds are not made to any set standard so the diameter can vary greatly. But if wait until you get them, and then...
