<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1327820, member: 26302"]Look at the pic of the edge of the coin. Just right of center, see the horizontal line? This color difference indicative of casting is many times impossible to remove. They can file away the metal, but many times there will be this colored line. The first thing I look at if I am suspicious is look at the edge at a distance, and see if I can make out this horizontal line.</p><p><br /></p><p>Chris[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
