<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1984626, member: 26302"]Look at the space between the date and the edge denticles. NO way can the edge of the coin be correct spacing, the damaged denticles are correct for spacing, but not correct and veer away from the edge of the coin. So what is your theory, that damage literally smashed the edge of the coin there? Why then is the reverse unaffected by the same smashed coin? I could understand if you are saying the coin is severely damaged right there, (maybe), but with the denticles not being on the edge of the coin and the reverse unaffected I cannot fathom how this could be a real coin and just damages. </p><p><br /></p><p>Btw, remember most of these things are copied from real coins, so things like die clashes would be copied as well. My specialty in US coins was SL halves, and I have a couple of 57P's, and LOTS of SL halves altogether. I have never seen the denticles veer away from the edge of the coin in such a manner.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
