While I appreciate all input because I'm going mad. Please explain the damage. Did a do it? Did the mint? Is some evil elf stamping ones in edges of coins? as for the tracks of whatever we have 2 coins. Both 2007. Madison and Adams. Just because no one has seen it doesn't mean that it is not just all kinds of strange.

When it comes to damage on a coin, you are wasting your time trying to figure out how it was done. There a millions of ways to damage a coin. True mint errors are well documented, because there is a limited number of ways for them to occur at the mint. Things such as off center, MAD's, brockages, struck through errors, incomplete planchets, broadstrikes, etc, all have a logical explanation when you look at the way coins are minted. When the whole process of minting coins is understood, it is easy to tell what is a mint error, and what could not be a mint error. Trying to determine exactly how and why a coin was damaged after being minted is an exercise in futility, because there are just way to many ways to damage a coin and make it look like something special.
