Hi All,

Pulled out my Lincoln Wheat Cents in my boredom and was wondering about this coin...

It is likely PMD on a 90+ year old coin but was hoping for an opinion if this is something else on the rim.

Looks like the rim took a hit that bent the metal in a bit. Maybe a vice or pliers.

Thanks, It just looked like the metal split along a seam

Interesting rim 'pop', likely the result of a circulation hit. Might be cool to see an end-on shot of the rim.

Circulation damage would be my guess.
