<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kevin Mader, post: 8266086, member: 106826&quot;]When you get a coin like this, have a look at the fullness of the rim.&nbsp; If you have a full rim, and missing devices, its usually a grease filled die.&nbsp; But not always the case (e.g., on the reverse of Zinc LMCs, the word STATES oF are sometimes faded because of a weak strike where the material wasn&#039;t moved enough).&nbsp; Also, be sure to flip the coin.&nbsp; Weak on one side might mean a problem with the other. </p><p><br /></p><p>If the rim isn&#039;t fully formed, and the coin not struck with a misaligned die, the faded devices on the edge might indicate a weak strike.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
