cwb Pillar of the Community United States 3463 Posts	Posted 06/23/2015 1:36 pm That looks more like damage from a machine. It would be odd for half of a digit to be filled in while the other half is full. I have been wrong before. Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 06/23/2015 3:52 pm Knocked off its rocker. Think I see a divot just below the device that runs in line with the device and parallel with the rim. Just a thought. Thanks, Doug. edit: better wording I hope.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/23/2015 4:32 pm Probably a vending machine damaged coin. If it were a coin wrapper, the damage would have been closer in towards the center a bit more. Report this Post to the Staff

SsuperDdave Moderator United States 23522 Posts	Posted 06/23/2015 5:30 pm Something like this doesn't pass the "How could it happen at the Mint?" test. Given that you can't move a hole in a die once you've dug it - which is what had to happen for that digit to shift - it's obviously postmint and one then shifts their attention entirely to postmint causes.
