<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Get Real, post: 2524006, member: 81585&quot;]I&#039;ve asked myself that same question ever since I found this coin. I don&#039;t know exactly what would cause it to completely fail on one side and &quot;partially&quot; fail on the other (explained in post #5) which is why I am asking the experts. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The &quot;Die Scratches&quot; that I pointed out in the previous pictures are in fact raised. Yesterday I had to take more that 60 pictures with different lighting angles while using different magnifiers to confirm that they are in fact positives. Keep in mind that those pictures were taken at 400x with an excessive amount of light and what may seem like large anomalies are in fact on a micro scale.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>By looking and feeling the coin it appears to have the same diameter as a good coin however the thickness is different. I pointed out in post #5 about the Reverse rim not being normal and the same height all the way around the coin. Now that you asked this question I had to go back and examine it again. The thickness of the coin is not even all around which corresponds to the rim anomaly on the Reverse. It is much thicker than a normal coin on one side and approximately the same as a normal coin on the other. Look at the picture below, the arrow points to the coin in question.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]538526[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
