If you manage to straighten it without too much damage it should be eligible for UKDFD. Title: Re: groat Post by: avalon on September 11, 2012, 09:29:37 PM I've straitened a few coins over the years but that's a nasty crease with possible crack in that Groat, it will break if you touch that one.

If you manage to straighten it without too much damage it should be eligible for UKDFD. Why does it have to be straight for UKDFD????
