<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Stoneman2, post: 2677919, member: 86886&quot;]Looking at the quarter; it has an obvious bulge on the obverse though no coresponding damage on the reverse.&nbsp; If you tske into account&nbsp; the damaged surface texture of the coin , this means post strike dsmage&nbsp; . Heating a clad coin will give this result. </p><p>The second&nbsp; coin was struck by dies that were clogged.&nbsp; This is normally by a mixture of grease and dust and metal shavings ... etc.&nbsp; A weak strike could look similar but would have unformed rims . This coins rims are fully formed.</p><p>The third coin as already stated was encased. The look of the rims is a dead giveaway. </p><p>The dorth coin could be a die chip but also a plating blister.&nbsp; The two lobes of the anomaly lend credence to a chip though I&nbsp; can&#039;t be sure.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
