Fantastic addition (View Post)

Something created those lines / tool marks on the planchet. Must have been pretty deep to not be obliterated by the striking. (View Post)

What a fantastic and rare coin. Lucky lucky find. I was hoping the seller would go through with his side of the deal and I'm glad to see it worked out! Congrats! (View Post)

Well, we can revisit Swamperbob's hypothesis that the stress marks actually point to rushed / poor quality of blank strip creation process and lack of lamination die process to close the cracks … (View Post)

It looks like plata agria, a term in Spanish numismatics that refers to areas of visible planchet stress marks remaining after the coin has been struck. (View Post)
