It is definitely lower, but looks like it has happened by force not by abrasion.

Thanks.

Here is the link again.

Does this work?  I am also posting the link address here...

Hi Nevol,

It looks to me like the outer layer has not been removed, but rather that the centre has been pushed out a bit.  To my eye, the coin is slightly deformed with the reverse being slightly convex and the obverse slightly convex.  I may be wrong on that.

Quote from: 'Nevol' pid='83073' dateline='1450827736'Just had another look at the Rev and to me it looks like someone has removed a semi-circular layer (about 70%) of the outer surface by some means, again most likely a 'shed' job.

Others may have other opinions though.

I just weighed it on electronic kitchen scales and got 9g, but I don't suppose that is much use to you.  I will see if I can get it weighed somewhere.

Hi all,

I am new to this forum.  My son found this coin yesterday.  Looks pretty interesting to me...
Here is a link to the pics.
