One of my more crazy finds.. I'm guessing it's struck grease filled die with Environmental Damage on reverse.. still pretty cool looking..
But if anyone knows if it could have been a coin on reverse lmk..
It does weigh over..
Fyi:
Arrows are pointing to letters that shouldn't be there..

    That's all just PMD. There's no struck thigh grease. It's simply corroded. It's garbage.

    Extremely obvious post-mint environmental damage. It is not "cool". It is junk.

    Acid or heat damage - weigh the coin. Acid damage - the coin will weigh less than the standard. Heat damage - the coin will weigh normal
