It looks to me like there are some man made gouges, but there are a couple that look like the strike was overtop of the gouges (?)

tfred Pillar of the Community Canada 627 Posts	Posted 01/14/2015 10:31 am agreed that the reverse is post mint damage. The obverse looks as though it is a planchet error. some sort of gouge on the blank before it was struck. Report this Post to the Staff
ace_ftw Pillar of the Community Canada 1747 Posts	Posted 01/14/2015 10:42 am I have seen these before as well, mostly on quarters, or nickels which are pure nickel. I believe its a flaw in the planchet and it was struck over it. I don't know if there is a market for these, I only keep them if they look cool or are significant. Or if the coin is immaculate. With the PMD on the reverse, personally I would put it back into circulation. I might be wrong, but I have seen a lot of these. Report this Post to the Staff
