<p>[QUOTE="dbldie, post: 1551270, member: 39052"]I remember picking this coin out of circulation for the strange characteristics the rim on the reverse has. It appears as though slightly over half of the rim was cut off and the remains of a sharp valley separate the two portions of the rim. There is a definite decrease in elevation, so it couldn't have been a couple of dings. I really can't think of anything that would justify this happening in the mint, but even under close examination, it doesn't appear to have been squeezed or cut outside of the mint. The obverse rim is perfectly normal and even throughout. The lower part of the rim extends from 8 o'clock to 4 o'clock, and the raised/normal looking rim is at the bottom of the reverse. The lower part looks very flat in contrast to the more rounded raised part. Thoughts?</p><p>[ATTACH]208673.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]208674.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
