[QUOTE="lkeigwin, post: 2585605, member: 30400"][ATTACH=full]562059[/ATTACH] I would be surprised if there is no correlation between the weakness in that area (rim, shield, wreath) and the gouges. I would be shocked if PCGS and CAC missed them. Or they saw them but forgave PMD and then, in spite of it, considered the coin high-end for the grade. (I get that the coin earned points for original surfaces, which JA loves.) Which leads me to believe both services felt it was as-minted. I too couldn't say what caused it. Wire from a brush? Whatever. To me, it is an eyesore and not a coin I would want in my collection. Lance.[/QUOTE]
