@SlurExe97 I am not arguing, I am rebutting. I am sorry if it is stressing you out that was not my intention. Upon seeing the coin edge I now firmly believe that what I was seeing as a Cud error is actually PMD. I did look at the posts you quoted, and although there are similarities between the coins I was not convinced that this was coin roll damage. I do not know how the damage on the 3 came to be but I will concede that it was mechanical damage that most likely did not happen at the mint and is therefore PMD. The edges were really the domino in my theory once I saw them everything else just fell apart. This is why pictures just are not an effective way to judge a coin, you must have it in hand.
john517, I'm sorry if my last post offended you, I can remove it if you like. I was really tired and I do get aggressive when I am tired (not that annoying me when I'm not tired is a good idea either...)
Always looked at the imperfection/hole in the edge below the 9, as an impurity/bubble in the blank and something stuck to the collar die, punched through.
Always looked at the 3 & 5 (leaf tip) as a possible struck thru.
Going to the toy-shop (coin store) today, will take it along and if they are not too busy, I will ask what they think.
