RedMP1972 Valued Member United States 87 Posts	Posted 06/12/2021 11:07 pm Can someone help with this coin. The obverse and reverse both appear to have been lightly struck. The reverse devices are almost unrecognizable. I do not see signs of grinding or sanding. Is this likely post minting coin damage, or a possible error? Report this Post to the Staff

Looks like someone took a file to it. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Edited by DBM 06/13/2021 12:26 am Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/13/2021 4:33 pm Post mint damage ( PMD), not a mint error of any sort. It did not leave the mint looking like that. Report this Post to the Staff
