pompeii New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted Today 12H 47M ago Hello I'm very new to the world of coin errors. This one seems to have a W in place of the "IN" GOD WE TRUST. I dont have a microscope yet so I had to use my phone for pics. * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 27093 Posts	Posted Today 10H 45M ago It looks like IN took a circulation hit that pushed the bottom of the I over into the N. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
lcutler Pillar of the Community United States 1672 Posts	Posted Today 9H 24M ago That's just damage, possibly from a rolling or coin counting machine. Report this Post to the Staff

Done It's not a mint error but some form of post mint damage that moved the metal from IN into the present shape. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21832 Posts	Posted Today 6H 55M ago Most likely a Coin Wrapping Machine moved the "I" over. This is quite common on wrapped coins. Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19474 Posts	Posted Today 5H 6M ago Yes, post strike damage--moved metal from a hit. I'm thinking damage caused by a mechanical rotary coin 'intake' device. Think old school parking meter. Inset quarter in slot and turn the dial. Report this Post to the Staff
