JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21653 Posts	Posted 08/09/2021 09:51 am Texasstar12 The term you may be thinking of is a vice or garage job. These are not errors, all you have to do is look at the flattened rims. This cannot happen when a coin is struck in collar. Report this Post to the Staff

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10047 Posts	Posted 08/09/2021 10:15 am As has been said, nothing in the minting process would produce this. So it is post mint damage. However, taking a couple of coins and squeezing them in a vice will make coins that look like the damage done to this one. We see this all the time on this forum (and other online forums). All it takes is a trip to the garage to verify. :) How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 08/09/2021 1:20 pm Without question, post mint damage ( PMD). Barely worth one cent, certainly not an error coin, sorry. Report this Post to the Staff
