John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 11/17/2017 10:10 am That is damage caused by a coin counter/wrapper machine or a vending machine. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7530 Posts	Posted 11/17/2017 10:11 am The circular damage seen on the obverse was caused by the wrapping machine, that was an end coin. The reverse does look like a die crack but in an odd position, can't tell for sure from the pic's glare. Report this Post to the Staff
