<p>[QUOTE="rascal, post: 1314169, member: 29239"]I have no use for your altered coin. I spotted it as altered the instant I saw it. All anyone needs to do is to look at the deep gouges of the rim of your coin where your other coins rim has dug down into it. also look how it broke up the coin's copper plating and distorted the surface because your coin was definately stretched out of shape the same way a broadstruck coin will do.I say bah humbug to those that say your altered cent is of normal diameter. If you want to prove that your coin is even close to it's original diameter then find a solid plastic cent holder and put your coin in it then get us a good straight on photo then do this to a normal one for comparison. my slabbed coin has the letters all the way up against the rim and part of the letters also shows up on the inside part of the rim. this means that if this was a altered one the top coins rim would have had to be completely off my coin's rim. this puts the fields of the coins much farther apart and would have destroyed the rim of my coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
