<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2373109, member: 1892&quot;]My gut reaction is &quot;planchet flaw which separated from the coin later during circulation.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>If it&#039;s a hit, metal had to go <i>somewhere</i>. We see nothing of that in this image, and I guess you&#039;d have mentioned it if metal was obviously displaced towards the obverse. The curve of the rim seems uninterrupted. Had it been a void during the strike, it would certainly have affected the strike quality in that area, and we don&#039;t see any of that. The denticles are as-struck in normal configuration.</p><p><br /></p><p>So the most sensible explanation to me is a detached lamination and a little circulation rounding the sharp edges afterward. Let&#039;s see what others think.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
