Nells250 Pillar of the Community United States 787 Posts	Posted 11/02/2020 5:56 pm HI all, another newbie question: What happened to this 2020 penny to get those two shiny curved scratches? Maybe the locations line up with a wrapper? If so, what could have made such deep(ish) scratches? Curious... again... probably nothing at all interesting but still... curious...

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19267 Posts	Posted 11/02/2020 6:06 pm That circular arc is caused by a Coin Wrapping Machine damaging the coin. Tends to happen with coins that are at the ends of wrappers--not always, but it does happen. Report this Post to the Staff
