lcutler Pillar of the Community United States 1351 Posts	Posted 05/28/2023 04:35 am Definitely damage. Modern coins are struck in a collar, sometimes called the third die. This keeps the coin round and forms the edge. The metal sticking out beyond the edge proves that it happened after minting. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Bedrock of the Community United States 22375 Posts	Posted 05/28/2023 08:41 am Damaged, I would hope that by now you really wouldn't think this could be done at the mint There are far more ways to damage a coin than there are true error coins. I find it amazing the way folks will go and destroy a coin. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." - Benjamin Franklin My Dansco 7070 type set coin count: 47/76 My Dansco 7181,7182 Uncirculated American Silver Eagle Albums - 1986 to Present My American Silver Eagle Collection - 1986 to Present My Dansco 8188,8189 Innovation Dollar Albums My Dansco 8176 Eisenhower-Dollar Album My Dansco 8166,8167 Kennedy-Half Dollar Albums My Dansco 8140,8143-8147 Washington-Quarter Albums My Dansco 8125 Roosevelt-Dime Album My Dansco 7112 Buffalo-Nickel Album My Dansco 8113,8114 Jefferson-Nickel Albums My Dansco 8100,8104 Lincoln-Cent Albums Edited by Dearborn 05/28/2023 08:53 am Report this Post to the Staff

BStrauss3 Pillar of the Community United States 3927 Posts	Posted 05/28/2023 09:24 am Needlenose pliers. Robbie the Robot. Some piece of machinery like an elevator door.
