<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1314101, member: 29239"]Mike I usually trust your opinions but I think sometimes you are a little fast on your judgement. I don't mean any offense towards you and we all make mistakes occasionally,I'm sure you will agree that we all can make mistakes. I totally agree with everyone on this thread that this coin does look like a squeeze job or a hammer job except it does not show even a tiny bit of the usual evidence of damage from a squeeze job. you would have to have this coin in hand to understand this. also look at how perfect it fits in the ICG cent coin slab. a hammer or squeeze job cent coin will not fit inside a cent slab unless the outer rim has been rounded back off with a lathe and this would remove the copper layer. </p><p>sometimes things are not what they appear to be. when I find the time I will get someones else's opinion then we can know for sure what the heck it is. I saw on here where someone said this could not be from a filled die with this much dropped detail. well I have seen one other coin slabbed by PCGS as a genuine mint error with twice more dropped detail than whatever is on this coin has.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
