Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73798 Posts	Posted 01/14/2018 11:08 pm PMD (Post Mint Damage). Some type of punch did this and I'm not sure what it is called. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 01/14/2018 11:24 pm Maybe something like these: Just PMD, I'm afraid. The fact that the reverse is affected lends credence to this.

Dennman Valued Member Canada 496 Posts	Posted 01/15/2018 01:17 am Roughly the right ideas so far.Definitely PMD. That penny was partially punched by 2 dies.One was the punch on the obverse and the other was the receiver.No way can a single punch give the sharp crescents on both sides. About the right size for a 3-ring binder paper punch.. Report this Post to the Staff
