It could be a Dryer Coin. When a coin gets stuck at the back of a dryer drum and rolls around on it rim cycle after cycle, after cycle, after cycle, etc, etc.

a dryer or spooned coin would have reasonably sharp rims.
personally I would think it is something else. could be spooned as there is more control of what to do.

yes, spooned.
people in prison used to take a spoon and used the spoon as a hammer to re-shape coins
maybe they were bored?

Guess it gave them something to do, would think the finished product would be less smooth.

Always thought that a die might have been plugged or impaired in some way.
