<p>[QUOTE=&quot;acanthite, post: 899729, member: 6647&quot;]I found this a few days ago.&nbsp; Most of the roughness and bumps around the 6 are explained by lamination peeling, which is apparent elsewhere on the coin (not really visible in the photos).&nbsp; The prominent prong coming out at the base of the 6 is more difficult to explain.&nbsp; I don&#039;t see how it could be a tilted repunch of a digit, more likely something to do with the lamination.&nbsp; I&#039;ve posted two closeups with lighting scattered differently to attempt to illustrate it better.&nbsp; Any comments are welcome.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x7/karakorum_photos/1c_1963D-varunknown.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x7/karakorum_photos/1c_1963D-ODmaybe-detail3.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><img src="http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x7/karakorum_photos/1c_1963D-ODmaybe-detail2.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
