My daughter bought a box of coins from a neighborhood kid and she gave them to me as a gift 23 years ago. I had assumed this coin had been run over by a train but I've held on to it. Then I recently came across a picture of a flattened coin that had been run over by a train. I was hoping maybe someone could tell if this is a mint error or maybe something else caused the lines?

To CCF! Can you post a picture of the obverse. I'm suspecting PMD.

to the CCF, Ac10082005!
It wasn't a train, but something mashed your coin.

With the obverse picture posted, it's definitely PMD.

Not an error, impossible for that to happen when the coin was struck so that means it is PMD.

I thought it was probably PMD. Thank you!

to CCF.

agreed, damage of some sort, (I kinda like it), but definitely not from a train - it would have been elongated if it were.
