I think the one took a very well-placed hit and it got displaced.

If referring to the date the "1" got knocked off it rocker. PMD. If referring to anything else I need close up. The motto has caught my eye with some thickness here and there. May be seeing things. Thanks, Doug. |

I agree the 1 took a hit but I believe it has something to do mint related. I myself have found 2 1941 LWC that looks just like this coin. Odds are against it just being random. |

Yep, just PMD. Just radom luck. If you look closer, I'm betting you will see differences. |

Some coin machines will damage coins this way. Sometimes several coins of the same year will have the same damage on each coin.

Looks like a well placed hit honestly. Is there anything during the minting process that would even cause that?

I agree with PSD. Most likely a coin counting/wrapping machine. John1  |

Or coin vending machines.  Note how the damage is almost parallel to the rim. Something moved/damaged that device. It didn't leave the coining chamber looking like that. PSD. ( Post- Strike- Damaged) Edited by coop
