<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 2824315, member: 15199&quot;]Jewels, there are several assumptions in your description with which I must disagree.</p><p><br /></p><p>(<span style="color: #ff0000">red</span>) All of that spacing of words and date is How the mint intends to strike them, and its only after millions do the letter, etc. tend to spread towards the edge of the coin and begin to become thicker and distorted, die deterioration ( damage). The mint makes Business strike coin for commerce, if a few bubbles are there , or cracks from a die, which are still worth their value, but it isn&#039;t an error or mistake.(<span style="color: #ff00ff"> violet</span>) The coin is not badly worn enough nor &#039;dirty &#039; enough to cause that. (<span style="color: #59b300"> green</span>) If you look at the rims with a real proof next to it , you will see that the edge is rounded ( chamfered) so it can feed into machines if needed without jamming).</p><p><br /></p><p>And the obvious one, some have claimed their coin is &quot;this or that&quot; when people who have been in this for a long time and know how the coining process actually occurs ~ know they are more correct..</p><p><br /></p><p>We know we can&#039;t change minds, but you have had several people on here tell you info , which you ignore because it doesn&#039;t feel right, and Books is right, if you keep posting on it, some one ( we have rascals around) who will give you a good but false agreement. No offense is intended by the members, so if you still disagree, you can send it to be certified and if you bring it back saying you were right, There will be crow on the table.&nbsp;&nbsp; Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
