[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1727327, member: 15199"]I am tempted to close the thread because it is getting away from the main purpose of the forum of concentrating on the coin and not on people. The only people who posts themselves as an "expert" are generally newbies who have a high opiniono of themselves and google to appear so. All anyone can do is to offer their opinion. If the Original poster disagrees, that is their right, but to do so without proof of their own, such as they made it, it also is just opinion, and they should just say thanks, but I respectfully disagree, and would like to hear more from others. No one has to PROVE or DISPROVE anything to anyone, this is opinions. The main question is whether it is Post strike mint damage , or could this have occurred in the mint striking process, because then if it is PMD, it is basically worthless as anything other than a curiosity piece. I believe it is PMD, take it as you may, there is no similarity to any of my 'grease filled' die coins so I ruled that out in [U][B]my[/B][/U] consideration the first time I viewed it. Jim p.s.
