To CCF, FlapSlapClap! Your coin is just damaged. It's PMD, not an error. A well placed hit moved the metal on the 1.

Well it is similar, but not exact so not from any master die. This is caused by what we believe is damage from a vending or Gumball Machine or something similar.

have a look herre:

Your reply was split into its own topic for the proper attention.

I agree, this is Gumball Machine Damage.
