    Morgandude11 As long as it's Silver, I'm listening

    I agree. It is a hideous looking coin. Interesting die cracks, but has a sandblasted look. :(

    BINGO! The surface around the raised design is protected from the mechanical cleaning.

    Not IMO. A sandblast surface looks nothing like this. Think of a dull, "matte" micro-pitted surface.

    Why? What do you see that make you question the coin?
