Looking as if nickel was spun around a few times . # 3 a 2007 nickel with large spot on queens face . Mark like you get when you punch metal with a nail punch , except this comes up and not punched in . You can feel the lump . It does stick up . # 4 2006 non magnetic penny with damage on both sides . Looks like could have been stuck before ejected ? Sorry for putting all these pictures on one file . Report this Post to the Staff

DBM Pillar of the Community Canada 9875 Posts	Posted 06/19/2017 10:53 pm Three are PMD without doubt. The 2007 is rusting beneath the plating, this is the future of all of our plated steel coins, they'll rust from the inside out long before they ever suffer enough wear that they need to be pulled from circulation. Lowball collecting of these coins will be quite challenging a couple of decades from now IMO. "Dipping" is not considered cleaning... -from PCGS website Report this Post to the Staff

Wonder who or what the torture subject was? Edited by Crazyb0 06/19/2017 11:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff
