gibgabber1 New Member United States 4 Posts	Posted 06/16/2018 4:49 pm Thanks afewmorecents, I suppose that there is no other damage and what looks like a drop of copper is what threw me. I'm not a collector so am not aware of all the different things that can affect a coins appearance. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74658 Posts	Posted 06/16/2018 7:57 pm It's Post Strike Damage (happened after it left the U.S. Mint), since you can see the pushed over and flattened metal. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
