<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2708019, member: 1892&quot;]Forgive me for altering your images, [USER=72976]@mitch721[/USER]. It has nothing to do with your imaging skills and everything to do with my own neuroses. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]610788[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]610789[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]610790[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Intriguing. I see flaked metal around the impact area, which clearly indicates the planchet was laminated and metal fell away. However, I also see an impact. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>What I don&#039;t see is any bleedthrough on the obverse face, where one would think that impact might be visible, being so deep. On the other hand, delaminations don&#039;t usually take the form of nice rounded divots, either. </p><p><br /></p><p>Are we looking at a fortuitous impact which delaminated metal that was prepared to depart with the right hit in the right place? I dunno. Like I said, intriguing. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
