<p>[QUOTE="eddiespin, post: 6613458, member: 4920"]Thank you for the pictures, I appreciate it, they'll work. The size and shape are very similar, drops have dark areas and this "anomaly" is dark, new errors are discovered all the time, ergo, you got it. If that's your rationale, here's what you want to read: <a href="https://www.coinworld.com/news/precious-metals/die-fill-responsible-for-errors-seldom-found.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.coinworld.com/news/precious-metals/die-fill-responsible-for-errors-seldom-found.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.coinworld.com/news/precious-metals/die-fill-responsible-for-errors-seldom-found.html</a>.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is PMD, there's no question about it, now. Let me just end with this on your dark area. Those areas occur from the part of the dislodged grease chip that retained its shape when they struck the planchet. In the link provided, that would be the entire B, right at the beginning of the link. So much for the dark areas in your anomaly. They neither mimic the shape nor the size of the dropped device. Rather, that's just a dark area. Ergo, this anolomy is but corroded PMD. Get a second opinion if you can't deal with it, there's your next move.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
