<p>[QUOTE=&quot;WriterIN, post: 1412508, member: 35620&quot;]I gotta agree with mike. That coin was gripped by a gorilla with a pair of pliers. On high magnification you can see that the outer ridge is deep and sharp, the next one in is shallower and less sharp and the third one shallower yet and correspondingly fuzzier, but the *angle* and *width* of the ridges remains constant. Additionally, the lines formed by the ridges are straight and perfectly perpendicular. </p><p><br /></p><p>This says that something to the upper left of the coin (as oriented in the picture) applied leveraged pressure. I can&#039;t imagine any situation where a die cap could do that. Sorry, rascal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
