Sudz Pillar of the Community United States 1572 Posts	Posted 08/12/2014 12:59 am I humbly submit that I believe this to be what is referred to as a "Bezel Coin". Someone ground it down around the rims on both sides in order to fit it into a bezel to make jewelry. This type of jewelry is often created for a particular birth year. Just my opinion, you'll probably want to wait for the experts to chime in, I most definitely could be wrong. Edited by Sudz 08/12/2014 01:00 am Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/12/2014 01:39 am Encased cent. Probably came from a "Good Luck" holder. The pressing it into the holder ruins the rims. Best to leave them in the holder as they become a damaged coin when they are removed. Report this Post to the Staff

pyrbob Rest in Peace United States 1943 Posts	Posted 08/12/2014 04:58 am I agree it was broken out of an encasement like one of the lucky coin holders. Also just for future clarity, the damage you are referring to is on the rim and edge of the coin. There is no collar on a coin. The collar is the die that forms the edge of the coin.
