 TO the CCF In order for anybody to help, clear photos of both sides of the coin are required. Click on "Tutorials" at top right of the page for instructions on posting pictures. |

Looks like the diamond pattern made from being cranked into a pair of vice jaws.  Edited by Mark1959

This coin has been mutilated, looks like someone hit it repeatedly with a punch. Value 1 cent.

Vice jaws or a wrench. Pretty common sight on change. Saw a similar pattern on the bolt of a toilet in my old office where some maintenance guy had tightened the bejeezus out of it. Either way, no extra value

Yep, no new pictures are needed - these are clear enough to tell that this was caused by PMD (post minting damage) not a mint error. Quote:

Your reverse photo looks like a piece of milk chocolate that someone tried to bite into . No , really it's intentional damage ,not an error . |

Hit the nail on the head with being squeezed by a vice. We call this a vise job.
