This is an actual coin edged bezel from the 30s, also called knurled. At that time the bezel unscrewed from the mid-case so the knurling was functional.



I believe this is what you are calling coin-edged. It is a fluted bezel from the 50s but the flutes are tighter than today. This bezel has been referred to as a semi coin edged to differentiate it from the other two.



And this is a later fluted bezel.
