Definitely Post Mint Damage. Some one used a Punch to mark a 7 into it

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy! I get a chance to show my $10 face value 2007-P John Adams Presidential dollar! I'll finally admit, I stamped this into the coin while experimenting with "punch shoulder depth effects."

Hold on Conder, I'm thinking I'm thinking  ... dang got nothing ! Actually coins marked like this have been used as claim tokens in metal detector competitions.

Coop, Funny thing is that another guy and I laughed about the gold plated 1883 V nickels and figured I could go into mass production and pass these as the new $10 "golden" dollars! We even laughed about adding another zero and making them $100 coins. I stamped about a dozen of them here and there and everywhere just testing them for shoulder outlines to see how deep I would have to go. I had thousands of the dollars at work with me searching for Smooth Edge and Double Edgers so they became prey. So now you know what I did at work! It's called QC!

Looks like now they need to put "ONE DOLLAR" on the reverse design. If an honest person could think of that, what would prevent a counterfeiter from doing this?

Here is another one I made while experimenting with punch shoulder depth effects in 2007. I made progress with this one.

Some do collect these. But with a lettering punch kit you could make these. But I would view it as a damaged coin. But who knows on ebay?
