[QUOTE="Speedy, post: 764784, member: 705"]I agree - it is damaged. The strike is too good around the rest of the coin to have such bad detail on the rim. If you sell it as good, I only hope the other buyer will be able to return it when he sees the damage. Totally unlikely - have you ever seen a die clash? It affects the highest parts of the coin. If this was a die clash you would see other markings around the rest of the detail. Either way - I checked out the coin on Heritage that you claim has the same damage - it does not. Your coin has been smashed, or placed in some type of holder/jewelry that pushed down on it in those places. On the Heritage piece, I see some glare from the scan that they made, and a weakness on the detail for the whole coin - but not damage that your coin shows. If you care to point out some facts that back up you saying that a die clash caused weakness around the rim at ramdom places, then by all means post it, and I'll read it. Speedy[/QUOTE]
