[QUOTE="19Lyds, post: 2460328, member: 15929"]Look carefully at the cladding around the edge. IF you can clearly see the top cladding, the copper core, and the bottom cladding, then the coin has been messed with. Authentic, untampered edges will have the copper core on one side and the cladding on the other but not necessarily with an even spread. Given the wear of your coin and the fact that the missing edge lettering coins command significant premiums, my gut says that your coin has been messed with to remove the lettering. Only a professional examination would reveal the truth.[/QUOTE]
