It's partly a combination of uneven wear (the higher dot is more protected by the rim) and a partly worn or filled die. That's my opinion anyway.Sadly the coin doesn't have any extra value. Quote

si666 Posted May 19, 2010 Author Posted May 19, 2010 Thanks for your comments guys,After a really close look i think i agree with you, Its fascinating how some coins wear in what would seem to be uneven ways dont you think? Quote
