[QUOTE="Cliff Reuter, post: 8272085, member: 115140"]It will be interesting (to me anyway) to hear any additional info as you learn it. I was trying to remember where I've seen the effect that is on the obverse and it reminded me of the impression that is left in the sand sometimes after removing a blanket that was crinkled up while sitting on it. I'm not talking about the grainy part of sand but the peaks and valleys created by a matted sheet/towel. This led me to wonder if this effect on the OP's coin might be struck through a [U]very large[/U] glob of grease. (Struck through a rag/towel would probably leave signs of the weaving of the fabric.) The depression over the last A(AMERICA) is well defined without any pressure ridge I can see around the perimeter which makes me wonder if this might be struck through as well and not PSD.[/QUOTE]
