    I'm at 66 on this one. I see what @longnine009 sees, but I'm going to assume that's the picture for now, and not the coin.

    Here’s the reveal. Maybe this one should go to CAC.

    You'll have to check it out carefully but it might be a a good candidate for CAC. It would look great to have the green bean on it, don't you think? Be sensible and don't let the thought go to your head. :)

    I saw what you're talking about, but I took it as a strike issue, and not wear. Those areas are the high points on the TX, and therefore could be subject to a less than full strike, where the planchet isn't fully hit by the die, leaving the non-lustrous planchet surface. This is seen a lot on the BTW's, such as this one (look at the cheek), and usually is mistaken for wear or circulation hits -
