<p>[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 166462, member: 112"]It's exactly that consistentcy that tells you it has been in acid. The acid has eaten away all of the clad layer, it does this at the same rate all over the surface of the coin at exactly the same time. That's why there are no rims left on the coin - the acid ate them away. As for the reeding, it is only still there because it was deep enough to survive the acid. But compare it to a normal coin, the reeding will be even deeper on the normal coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
