jlgaudlitz95 Valued Member United States 280 Posts	Posted 09/22/2012 01:21 am Hmmmm... I'll have to think about this one. Maybe tool marks (errors) from minting? It looks a little off center, too. You need an expert on errors to be certain(I certainly don't qualify.)Good luck! Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/22/2012 7:26 pm Looks like the reeding on the rim from another coin was damaged into this coin. Indented into the coin = damage usually. There are other cases of struck through, but this looks like damage to me. Report this Post to the Staff

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 09/23/2012 06:32 am The coin is obviously worn, but the features along the rim show raised ridges that are "sharp" and do not show wear. This is damage that occurred after the minting and after a significant amount of circulation. Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/23/2012 11:51 am Could it be some kind of a collar problem during striking? John1 Report this Post to the Staff
