Are the really deep gouges on one side of the coin caused during the strike? Post mint damage?

Wow - really nice error coin and great job on the identification.  Quote:
Tropicalbats diagnosed this one correctly. High praise indeed coming from Mike Diamond - and continued evidence that tropicalbats is a true master at error coin identification. Very well done. Quote:
I'm still all burned out from my summer work I was wondering where you were - know it has something to do with bat health and scientific survey. I suggest that many of us CCF'ers would enjoy reading an update on your summer work - perhaps the Family forum would work to do so. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art |

Excellent coin. I do have a question about K12 on the third image. Is that a "D" near the rim or just part of the PSD? ps. Welcome back and thanks for the eye candy. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Thanks all for the great comments and welcome back! As for K12 on the third image it's just more PMD. And along those lines, I honestly do not know how this type of damage gets on error coins, but I see it fairly commonly. Either the machinery can scratch them up or maybe they do this on purpose to note it's a bad coin. That would seem odd, but I don't really see this on many non-error coins. And while I am back, it's not for long. Next up is Kentucky for a week and then a six week fall project. I will try and put something in the Family forum, but I'm putting it here to let anyone who reads this far down into this thread that I am going to retire from full-time bat chasing on Halloween (of course!) and won't disappear all summer every summer anymore. |

Hmmmm, yes. Partial retirement. Just dropping off from full-time but will pick and choose various fun projects to go on. I've had to turn down a lot of them since I was pretty tied up, but will soon have more freedom. No rocking chair for me quite yet!
