<p>[QUOTE=&quot;JCro57, post: 3051974, member: 92083&quot;]Your coin was forcefully compacted which resulted in raising the rim above its normal level as the pressure was applied. The edge and the rim show strong evidence of tool marks. The coin&#039;s edge should be smooth, unless it is a blank (no upset rim). And the coin you posted is 1983, not 1993.</p><p><br /></p><p>The U.S. gov&#039;t minted coins for over 40 countries from around 1833 (unofficially, and then officially starting in 1874) up until the mid 1980s. After the mid 1980s only one issue was made, the 1000 Silver Kronur Leif Ericson commemorative for Iceland dated 2000 and struck at the Philadelphia Mint as a two-coin set.</p><p><br /></p><p>Unfortunately, your sample has not only been damaged after it left the Mint, but it is not a foreign stock.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
