<p>[QUOTE=&quot;brinssig, post: 3004950, member: 12147&quot;]I contacted a rare coin specialist who said the rims on both sides were probably caused from being clipped from another coin while being minted.&nbsp; If the rims were damaged I would expect that the damaged areas would look shinier than the rest of the coins.&nbsp; They also look like they blend in too much with the rest of the coin to be damage.&nbsp; </p><p>From the fourth star going up in front of the face there is also a small die crack going into the rim just above the defect.&nbsp; It starts from inside the star and goes into the denticles into the rim.&nbsp; I don&#039;t see this small die crack on the example they show on VAMWorld.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
