luvmyCAM Pillar of the Community United States 1479 Posts	Posted 11/01/2018 10:22 pm I believe you find a grinding wheeled coin. I have one similar to yours. Some nefariousness work went into that one. I could be wrong so lets see what the experts think. Nice misaligned obverse die though. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34435 Posts	Posted 11/01/2018 10:28 pm I agree that this looks much more like damage (where someone has inexplicably abraded away the rev of your cent). If you look at the edge, is there an area where the metal has been dragged over the normal edge of the coin?

victoriarose28 Valued Member United States 169 Posts	Posted 11/01/2018 10:54 pm I just checked the edge and it seems like you were both right, it looks more like someone worked on it just how you described the edge would be. Thank you to you both, appreciate it. Report this Post to the Staff
