<p>[QUOTE=&quot;muhfff, post: 2274446, member: 71559&quot;]Got this coin recently and I can&#039;t figure out what happened.</p><p>There seem to be &quot;splashes&quot; of extra metal on legend and coats of arms, but not on coin fields (except in legend area of course, in V and AR area).</p><p>The extra metal itself seems to be silver (actually it would be more precise to say, it doesn&#039;t appear to be tin or lead, although I haven&#039;t tested it and can&#039;t be 100% sure).</p><p>The coin weights 11,92 grams (official weight is 12,00 grams), condition (if the &quot;splashes&quot; not counted) seems to be low MS. The &quot;hairlines&quot; (on the picture) seems to be die polish lines (raised lines).</p><p>The other side of the coin is perfectly normal.</p><p><br /></p><p>So, what do You think? Mint error or post mint damage? What happened? Did somebody tried to make jewellery? Has anybody seen something similar?</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry for bad pictures, but hopefully they are descriptive enough.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]453554[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]453555[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
