<p>[QUOTE="Deacon Ray, post: 3137769, member: 81896"]<font face="Georgia">I had theory on that, [USER=42634]@chrsmat71[/USER] I've owned two and they were the same way. The face was worn but most of the other details were visible. At first I thought that it was due to the face being the highest point on the coin. Later it occurred to me that it could be the result of people instinctively rubbing their thumb over the face over many years and wearing it down. People may have kept the coins as religious tokens or good luck charms.</font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
