<p>[QUOTE="Razz, post: 5420904, member: 100526"]Fun fact about LWCs is that one of the highpoints on the coin is the shoulder of Lincoln on the obverse and the O in ONE on the reverse. These two areas are directly opposite of each other. In some cases the strike doesn't fill the die completely and the marks in the planchet don't smooth out completely. It makes it look like PMD but is really what is called planchet roughness. You can see it really well on my 1945 example.[ATTACH=full]1235324[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
