coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/02/2018 11:59 pm Look at the edge of the coin. If it is not round, it been pound down. Incuse marks on coins usually always mean coin damage about 95% of the time. Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74456 Posts	Posted 07/03/2018 12:01 am It's probably a Garage job. One coin has been placed on top of another coin, and was smacked with a hammer very hard. It's Post Strike Damage (it happened after it left the U.S. Mint). Errers and Varietys.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74456 Posts	Posted 07/03/2018 12:15 am If you want, you can try replicating this (but only use coins in really rough and crappy condition). Just get two coins, and smack it very hard with a hammer. You'll get this result if you do. Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 07/03/2018 12:16 am Report this Post to the Staff

Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 07/03/2018 12:35 am Hey Coop, when I had bought a new to me but used Chevy Blazer to use as my rural mail route vehicle, I was told to christen it by "keying" it. That's taking a key and raking the side with it...all mail vehicles get trashed through the use, might as well start marked up! LOL! Report this Post to the Staff
