<p>[QUOTE=&quot;physics-fan3.14, post: 2555865, member: 19165&quot;]All of the fields, obverse and reverse, look unnatural in your pictures. Sometimes, a &quot;smoothed&quot; coin had some sort of environmental damage or corrosion. A coin doctor came and attempted to restore those surfaces to a normal-ish look. He did this by tooling them, basically pushing the metal back to a &quot;smooth&quot; appearance. Your pictures are not in-focus enough for us to determine exactly what/where your coin was smoothed - but if PCGS say it was altered, the odds are strong that your coin was altered.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
