Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75446 Posts	Posted 06/21/2018 9:32 pm It's heavy Post Strike Damage (it happened after it left the U.S. Mint). It was in a parking lot and it got run-over by cars. Worth face value, since it's only damage. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 75446 Posts	Posted 06/21/2018 9:42 pm Because it's been damage. The metal was pushed over and flattened. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 06/22/2018 01:24 am I can't answer why it feels the way it does because I can't feel it (post-damage circulation wear?). Otherwise, it is obvious that this coin was pressed against concrete. The highest points on the design are affected the most meaning it was damaged by a hard, flat surface such as a sidewalk.
