<p>[QUOTE=&quot;princeofwaldo, post: 1251130, member: 24091&quot;]That&#039;s EXACTLY the first thought that went through my mind. Reverse of an 1652-A Louis D&#039; Or pictured. </p><p>The &quot;haymarks&quot; or more accurately streaking is much more evident with coin in hand, but you can still see a significant mark at 7:00 on the reverse about 3mm up from the rim. </p><p>Also a scattering of marks at 1:00 in the legend.</p><p><br /></p><p>Only one thing kind of troubling about the conclusion. Tin has a melting point less than half of either gold or silver. I suppose impurities in the tin amalgam could raise the melting point, but realistically, I can&#039;t imagine a scenario where tin would not go into solution at temperatures greater than twice its melting point.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]134693.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
