On the obverse on the right hand side is worn die,on the left I think is a minor MAD that had a Rim Fin that has folded over.Maybe

Seems to me that most coin roller damage I have seen is 3 mm to 4 mm in from the edge and leaves a gouged out semicircle. This does not seem to fit that description. I think it is a slight MAD because the rim all but disappears on the opposite side of the OBV.

I agree that it is MAD and that it was not caused by a coin roller. I don't remember ever seeing this kind of separation on the rim of a MAD. Then again maybe I have and didn't pay any attention to it.

Looks more like a tilted die strike error:

When I look at the tilted die strike image on error-ref, I see significant weakness of the strike opposite the strong rim and also weakness on the reverse - enough to eliminate some devices or portions of them.

I see some possible weakness on the coin in the OP opposite, but not that clear - only eliminating a portion of the rim demarcation. Also, there appears to be no weakness on the reverse.

So is the coin in the OP simply an extremely mild presentation of a Tilted Die Strike Error?
