[QUOTE="paddyman98, post: 2719220, member: 44615"]Hello Luis, What you have is not a Mint Error. It is damaged. Someone somehow removed the Reverse by scratching it off. We call it PMD - Post Mint Damage :yack: The clues are as following - 1. The lines on the surface which look like scratches 2. There is a missing Upraised Rim like on the Obverse. Both sides should have an upraised Rim. 3. It is impossible to have a Blank Reverse with a perfect Obverse since both sides need equal pressure to have the images appear. Peace :angelic:[/QUOTE]
