<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hobo, post: 512295, member: 11521&quot;]I dunno. How are the raised (and worn) areas - FDR&#039;s hair, cheek, chin, nose, eyebrow as well as the lettering - clad but the lower areas are not. In other words, if half the planchet was not clad and then it was struck wouldn&#039;t ALL of that portion of the coin be unclad? How then did the higher portions of the devices and lettering become clad and the other area not?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I think your coin is stained. I think it was stained and the stain at the higher areas noted wore off in circulation. (But I could be wrong.)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
