Jadcubsfan1 Valued Member United States 89 Posts	Posted 07/22/2015 8:18 pm Thanks all. I'm trying to learn, but some PMD damage just looks so intresting that I guess I jump the gun. Anyhew, what likely caused this? An old fashioned meat tenderizer, cleat stomp, that type of damage Report this Post to the Staff

CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 07/22/2015 11:49 pm There is a movement in Numismadia to shift from PMD to PSD, Jadcubsfan1. Post Mint damage can be confusing, as many coins are damaged after the strike yet before leaving the mint. Post Strike Damage is the better term. What causes the damage is generally conjecture, unless you actually saw it happen. Edited by CoinMasters 07/22/2015 11:50 pm Report this Post to the Staff
