<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sallent, post: 3179945, member: 76194&quot;]It&#039;s called uneven strike, and also the reverse die might have been getting old and worn when that coin was struck. But none of the strike unevenness looks like something that couldn&#039;t be the result of typical mint quality control&nbsp; in ancient times.</p><p><br /></p><p>Look also at what&#039;s there, the letters which are well struck are sharp, not soappy, and the portrait looks normal for that type of wear. The fields also look normal.</p><p><br /></p><p>My advise is that you should stick to safe and reputable dealers until you know what to look for. It will take a while for you to learn, so play it safe, ask for our advise on dealers before you part with your hard earned cash.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
