Amy939 Valued Member United States 84 Posts	Posted 02/18/2018 12:13 am Just wandering what exactly is going on with this coin? What is the correct terms and did it happen at mint or is it post mint? It is very smoothe when touching as in I can't feel any of the lines or scratches. And the rim is silverish. Why are there multiple directions the lines are going? And the face is missing in spots along with letters Report this Post to the Staff

still lookin Pillar of the Community 967 Posts	Posted 02/18/2018 12:19 am The damage is all post mint. Looks like it spent some time on a parking lot getting ground into the pavement. The silverish color is the expose zinc core. Report this Post to the Staff

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 02/18/2018 12:59 am It is definitely post-mint damage. Maybe it had some fine grit sandpaper taken to it. That could explain the scratches and smoothness. You may be surprised what people do to coins out of curiosity or pure boredom.

Amy939 Valued Member United States 84 Posts	Posted 02/18/2018 03:24 am Interesting! Also, is the part of his face missing due to being scratched also or post mint damage? All of the lines are so straight and parallel that it makes it unusual for it to be damaged from being scraped Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/19/2018 4:22 pm Well it is definitely damaged. Mostly the raised devices are affected, except for some field areas. Note how the date is splashed. Report this Post to the Staff
