circulation cameo I like that term, first I've heard of it. And I like the look, always prefer it on older coins, glad to hear it has a name. |

Here's a closer view of whatever is going on under the chin! I mean you can see scratches throughout, a fairly deep one right above this, but then it stops at the star?!? I'd think whatever did this couldn't have shut down, even go around the star? I always overthink things, not afraid to ask the stupid questions, which I know, hold your gasps, I know this is new info for everyone!!   |

And I just learned about circulation cameo for the first time as well!! I should probably change my profile to circulation ccb, since about 97% of my entire collection (which I'm not sure if it even meets definition of "collectione" has come from someone's pocket or purse, maybe a fanny pack

I could put an array of Mercury's, one barber, 4 or 5 Roosevelt's, Jefferson, Morgan, peace,Washington's, oh and my 2nd coin ever purchased my first Walking Liberty half  I know I'm not supposed to put 2 coins on same thread, just so much easier, this gal came with a decent die crack going through STATE, tip of wing and up through America And no not a hair as displayed so nicely at bottom right of reverse |

I love the smooth surface. But something under the chin might affect the grading. I have a question similar to yours resently. That is about my new 1860S Seated half dollar. There is strange damage on the coin. I will talk about it after dinner  |

Back to my question, I've seen that type of damage on other coins, you can obviously see it differs from your average scratch, dent, or ding!?!? Should I just call it damage and move on?

There is toning on the damaged part, which means this is an old damage. But it goes around by stars, I think somebody did it on purpose.

If this is your first coin purchase then you did well. You started.
