It appears to me that it suffered some damage (compression) on the denticles at the bottom of the Reverse! The denticles at the top of the Obverse...
Catbert, That is one really nice token! Thanks for sharing it and the great history behind it! Frank
Great but in the mean time, can you carefully take the coin out of the 2x2 and take some more pictures to post here! Also, please insure that...
Isaiah, You are apparently seeing something on the coin that we do not see and is not there! Remember, you are viewing a photo of a coin and...

I believe that it is genuine! Although circulated and having some bad rubs or scrapes on it, the minute (small, fine) details appear to be intact...
I agree with both of you! Also, you can sometimes buy a (CU) Crisp Uncirculated stack of 100 consecutive numbered $1 Bills on eBay that contains a...
I am sorry folks but on this one I have to disagree! The coin is already damaged due to the heating and application of the solder. If with only 5...
