found this the other day, thought it might be worth showing you guys. Not even sure what to call this error, or how it was made. Would just like a little info on how rare this might be. thanks, pics taken with cell phone sorry for quality.

Looks like post mint damage ( PMD) to me. Someone took nail or something and tried to hammer the Queen! It appears to be raised on the reverse, which is a give-away. The pics are a little hard to tell though.
Rest in Peace

I agree with chequer

see pics below and it does look like a punch..The lines do line up.I rotated your coins to see it better.

a bummer was hoping it was something good. its just I thought of the nail thing also I just thought it was too clean looking for it to be a nail you know. And so youre saying if it goes through to the other side it cant be an error?
Rest in Peace

Hi there. I'd have to agree it's PMD, someone took a hammer and counter-punch and went to work.
