Looks altered to me. The coin is out of round and warped outward in one area. PSD I'm going to send Mike Diamond on for this one. Maybe it is something I don't know about? |

Definitely some form of post-strike damage.

Post all the coins you want ....it is a good way to learn.
I am thinking as the others members are
It does not look like any known error.
Looks like it happen post strike ... after it left the mint

Cheifbrody, you're new here, so in case you don't know, Mike Diamond fields questions from stumped experts - before breakfast. If he says it's PSD, then it's PSD. I'm just hoping he'll change his mind, or point us in the direction of a PSD expert. I just don't understand how a coin could possibly be altered that way. Can you weigh it? Edited by CoinMasters

No...unfortunately I don't have a scale...I don't know what tool they could use to make it look that way..but I'll take Mr. Diamonds word on it..he has much more experience in the error field than I.

To help you understand, anytime you see damage on one side of a coin and stretching on the other, it most likely happened after it was struck.
Think about it, how could a design get stretched with the die against it? It had to happen after it was minted or the design would be smeared or show some type of damage.
It is an interesting piece though and I would still like to see what it looks like from the edge.
