<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Troodon, post: 131836, member: 4626&quot;]Here&#039;s a close-up of the &quot;Pluribus&quot; area on the reverse.&nbsp; Does seem to be a bit of a weak strike there which would account for less detail there than in the rest of the banner.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.cointalk.org/gallery/files/4/6/2/6/scan0007.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Quite a bit of scratching here too.&nbsp; The obverse looks like it was better cared for than the reverse.&nbsp; I&#039;m guessing this coin was probably dropped on the ground, landing heads up, and got scratched being picked up, sometime in its past.&nbsp; Just a guess though.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for the post on the lettered edges.&nbsp; Will be interesting to see modern US coins bring these back![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
