<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1825413, member: 19463"]The area on the obverse that backed up the TIA region is equally devoid of detail suggesting the coin was struck unevenly. You have a good strong ear and crown but no detail in the drapery on the bust. Is the flan very thin in that part? Letters sometimes disappear due to a filled die (junk in the die preventing striking) but being on both sides makes me suspect either a thin spot on the flan or an uneven strike.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
