I found this coin before I began looking for mint errors and kept it because of its great luster, but didn't care to share it because it looked...
Sorry, I didn't properly describe the raised and indented parts of the coin. There is an indent between "AM", "S", and the northeast part of the...
I can't quite make heads or tails of what's happening here. There are raised details on both the obverse and reverse, but I can't make out a...

[ATTACH][ATTACH] I took some pictures with better quality, hopefully this will shine some more light on the situation. Still appears to be...
