@JW007, while Canadian coins are not my area of expertise, this sure looks like plain damage to me.

@Spence, I thought so aswell but I was not 100% sure so I thought I had better ask to make sure.

Asking here is a great idea! I'm sure that some of the regular Canadian error folk will weigh in eventually and give you confirmation.

Yes, it has taken a hit that has flattened the rim. You can still see some of the ribbing. PMD |

Looks like it could have been a double strike, but the area is so small, if that's the case it may not add additional value.

If it's PMD why can one make out denticles and beadsan the very small portion that sticks out? |

It's tough to say on such a small section, but I tend to agree with Alan, I think its a tiny double-strike

Upon further inspection with my microscope I do kind of see beads but again I'm not sure, I was just assuming it is PMD but if you look where I circled in red you can see the beads slightly.

Yeah, there they are. If not double struck it's an indent strike or partial brockage. It could have been struck against another blank coin, very hard to tell. If you can get large pics of the other side would help to say which. I thought I could see denticles too which would imply double struck.

That looks like collar clash on the reverse picture.
How can something like this happen?
