<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2907657, member: 19463&quot;]Remember it is always possible for there to be more than one thing going on at the same time.&nbsp; I agree with the double strike idea.&nbsp; Raised pimples are associated with some fakes but I&#039;ve seen some I believe came from a coin being in fire (cleaned with a blowtorch???).&nbsp; Here we have the reason I am glad I am not a dealer and doubly glad I don&#039;t work for a grading service where I am expected to tell the difference between real and fake for every coin I see.&nbsp; It is easier to tell the difference between coins I want to buy and coins I don&#039;t without having to explain why.&nbsp; I most certainly have coins I find interesting for reasons not all that different from that doubled profile.&nbsp; I might have bought that one for that oddity.&nbsp; The pimples add nothing I find interesting so I would have walked away without comment.&nbsp; Is it a coin you want to see someday offered in a sale as &quot;ex (your name goes here) collection&quot;?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
