Newbie234 Pillar of the Community United States 1386 Posts	Posted 06/04/2018 06:50 am This damage is on the O of OF LOL! Anyway I tried several times with a toothpick to remove it,But it wont budge.The area halfway through and North of the O is slightly raised above the field. So what caused this? Something during the strike or PMD? Any advice is greatly appreciated! Report this Post to the Staff

chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 06/04/2018 06:56 am It`s not PMD but I forget what the name of the error is called. I believe that a piece of scrap cladding hung onto the planchet. When it was struck the piece folded over and was stamped over.

chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 06/04/2018 09:49 am Nope. Not a Rim Fin. Something else. I'm looking. This is the best I can come up with. I think I'm correct. If not, someone will correct me. http://www.error-ref.com/_blanking_burr_/ Edit to my edit: There were no images of this error but they did describe it and it sounds dead on what you have. Here is the quote from the website and I'll follow it up with the website address: Quote: Squeezed-in debris (upset mill inclusion) (ES May/June 2006; CW 9/6/2010) Foil-like metal wraps around edge onto one or both faces http://www.error-ref.com/part-v-planchet-errors/ Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection: http://goccf.com/t/303507 Edited by chafemasterj 06/04/2018 10:17 am Report this Post to the Staff
