<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1628888, member: 112"]That's nothing really unusual, the coin just isn't well centered. On a well centered coin the rim is the same width all the way around. On coins that are not well centered one part of it will be wider than the rest, while directly opposite that wide area the rim will be narrower than the rest. </p><p><br /></p><p>This is something that is actually so common that being well centered is a grading criteria.
