That's not damaged.

It's a nineteen four-ward slash.

Mine looks nothin like the one in your picture as in your picture you can plainly see its damaged?....


It doesn't matter, there's no process at the mint that could produce a coin like you're describing. It is damaged.

I just got back from a local coin shop...he has been in business for about 40 years.....he said its absolutely an error.....a "die chip" error......he said when a coin is struck it softens and raises the metal up and the a "die" comes down on the coin to give the raised effect and when the die is pulling up a chip fell onto it creating this error?......I don't know much about the coin making process so I might be off a little bit with how I described it but this older gentleman really knows his stuff.......so what does everyone think now that I have more info?.....I am still waiting for my sister to come over with her camera so I can take some better pictures of it.....
Rest in Peace

Here is my opinion. If your dealer is correct then it isn't like the other coins in this thread and everything discussed so far is useless. My suggestion is to take a decent photo when you get the camera and post them on a new thread. Then we can start over and let you know just what you have.
