d_dob Valued Member United States 193 Posts	Posted 11/20/2015 6:39 pm I got this in change the other day, and, after a quick glance, noticed this error without needing any magnification. I know I'm just learning about the minting process, but, I'm not sure I understand how this could have happened on the reverse. I've posted the reverse of an unaffected 2015 first for comparison. Also, are those die gouges on the obverse of the affected coin? (I'm sorry, I meant to post this in Modern Coin Varieties!) * Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. * Edited by d_dob 11/20/2015 7:09 pm Report this Post to the Staff

SilverStackerKid Pillar of the Community United States 6478 Posts	Posted 11/20/2015 8:01 pm It is damage of some sort. It looks like it goes under the devices, but in reality, those devices are incuse, so the damage would not effect them. The obverse has dings, not die gouges. Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 11/21/2015 10:54 am I'm not a big fan of coin wrapper damage. But it looks like this design was made with that in mind. It seems to fit right in place. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/16/2017 09:30 am The damage is on the coin. The date is incuse. (sunk into the coin) So the damage is not touching the bottoms of the date. The first two images are of a normal coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Google coin wrapper machine and it lists many different manufactures and types. Everything from manually press and twist to heavy duty machines spinning at high rpm. Note: I believe the issue occurs when to much pressure is applied during the sealing process. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff
