tweak800 Pillar of the Community United States 1249 Posts	Posted 09/08/2015 10:05 pm Looks like they moved it to a correct forum probably had it posted in the wrong place. It's fine you'll learn the song of things and if you do anything wrong they will tell ya lol . But as fast as your coin goes it looks like PMD aka post mint damage. So not an error. Probably done by a wrapping machine or something of that sorts. You can see how the metal had been displaced. So it's worth 10 cents. Keep looking Report this Post to the Staff
Finn235 Pillar of the Community United States 6130 Posts	Posted 09/08/2015 10:42 pm There was a thread about the same damage pattern commonly seen on nickels from the 70s. Best theory offered was a type of coin rolling machine that was rejected due to the damage it inflicts on the coins. Report this Post to the Staff
cladking Pillar of the Community United States 2273 Posts	Posted 09/09/2015 10:16 am Anytime a coin is forced to turn between two rough surfaces it will acquire these circular patterns or arc. There are countless ways they occur but the most common is from malfunctioning coin rolling machines. Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/09/2015 11:43 am It might be deliberate garage damage to the coin. (coin wrapper issue/vending machine/coin counter damage usually affects the last third of the coins surface. The is usually parallel to the rim) Edited by coop 09/09/2015 11:46 am Report this Post to the Staff
Atlas642 Pillar of the Community United States 562 Posts	Posted 09/09/2015 12:37 pm I've seen this same PMD on 50's to 70's era nickels. I'm thinking some machine used at the time for rolling or sorting. Report this Post to the Staff
