<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tommyc03, post: 2104993, member: 17665&quot;]Before you say PMD let me explain a few things. There is no edge damage to indicate this was held with pliers or in a vise. All of the lines in this look like flow lines, they are not sharp or have edges. The T in States appears to be upside down and the other spots I have marked are perfectly smooth craters. There is no damage to the obverse. That said, what else could this possibly be? Could this be a final stage of die deterioration before the die was removed. It is a 1987D. Outside of the minting process I cannot think of anything hot enough to have been able to push the metal around like this (soldering iron?). No burn marks either so not a torch.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
