I get a box of halves a week, and I am finding, on average, 100 JFK halves that are completely missing the reeded edges.
The reeded edges appear to have been ground off completely, and many of them show wear patterns that indicate that the edges have been machined or aggressively sanded as the coin spun until it is completely smooth. One aspect to note is that the two faces of the coins show no wear other than usual circulation.
Anyone else see these coins?
Anyone know what causes this, or how the edges have been worn or ground off?
Thanks in advance!
