[QUOTE="JCro57, post: 3066435, member: 92083"][USER=44615]@paddyman98[/USER] That's exactly what I thought at first. So, I made as a condition of this sale, that if the label is incorrect and it turns out it is in fact a planchet that I am 100% refunded including all shipping. Let me just say that these ANACS holders are annoying because the two sides of the plastic inside the showcase circle are touching, thus it looks like there is always moisture in there; it's also hard to see rims and edges. Anyway, I checked the edges and it is dead on for the rough, punched-out, unsmoothed appearance that blanks have. Also, the photos are taken on a slight angle and the edge of the hole adds to what one might think is a rim. What you think you see is raised is actually sloping down. These closeups should help. The bottom under Lincoln almost appears to prove it is not a blank, but it is only raised above the bottom of Abe because the pressure to stamp him was not all the way to the edge, so it is natural that the edge Underneath Him would be higher, giving the false appearance that it is a planchet. The weak strike on the reverse in those areas mentioned above is also kosher with those struck on blanks.
