Sanded on the reverse side ?

My immediate impression was that this coin has had the reverse sanded off,you can see part of the rim at 8pm, what does everyone else think ?

Enworb is rushing out to his shed to make a batch now. Just needs to know what date it is.:taunt:

The "description" is a giveaway even if everything else isn't.

Funny thing is his/her other listings look OK on a quick scroll through. Although Australian 2 Dollar Coin Die Adjustment Strike Error Weak Strike. in his completed listings doesn't look kosher to me.

I asked him to weigh it - I'll let you know if he replies anything.

Its a shed job for sure.

My guess is a 1947 or 48 Melbourne Penny and PMD for sure.

[WavyTwenty]

It weighs 9.09 grams - I let him know that it should weigh 9.45 grams.

Lets see what he says...

Looks like it resulted in: This listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available.

Good to see, good work Wavy20.
At least there are sellers out there that will listen.
