Kopper Ken Pillar of the Community United States 3402 Posts	Posted 07/29/2022 10:09 am I looked at the enlarged reverse...looks like someone tried to change the "E" in CENT to another letter or the coin just got hit in that area. Either way I call it damaged. KK Report this Post to the Staff
IndianGoldEagle Bedrock of the Community United States 36826 Posts	Posted 07/29/2022 11:22 am I don't think the hit on the E would be enough to "details" the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
