[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 6704675, member: 77814"]You're just not thinking "freely" enough. One side no damage ... thus one side was on a material to receive any impact. The other slice marks ... thus one side was hit with some thinner object. if you think outside the box with other responses ... try doing this at home. Take your concrete driveway .. put a piece of leather on the ground (this is the fixed surface that can absorb some impact) put the quarter on it use one half of scissors .. (or small chisel type thing or something) and use a hammer and whack it onto one side of the quarter (which is the process to create the slice marks) repeat use other methods .. etc you'll be able to repeat similar thing but without the *exact* method and forces the person did to this you'll be able to repeat similar outcomes but maybe not the exact one. The thing to learn from this is knowing how to identify PMD. You can do this more by learning the exact minting process both modern and older methods. The more you learn how coins are actually made the more easily it is to dismiss more obvious PMD. good luck[/QUOTE]
