<p>[QUOTE=&quot;cush66, post: 38436, member: 1401&quot;]GD: I keep looking at this coin and other than driving me crazy hehheh I was wondering. Could it be that maybe the person altered the date but it left obvious marks and damage. So could it be to cover the obvious marks the person intentionally started punching away/carving other areas of the coin to kind of make the date blend in with the rest of the coin to take focus away from the altered date. Kind of like saying to their selves that whoever finds/buys this coin will think of it as a genuine 43 copper that went through say a lawnmower or something else that damaged the whole coin. Only reason I say this is I like working with metal and sometimes I do things with punches, files or graver chisels to see what the design outcome will be (not on coins though). The other reason I say this is I keep focusing in on the &quot;in god we trust&quot; and it sure looks nice compared to the date. Still wondering LOL!! By the way, I would sure like to see the reverse.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
