Anyone ever see something quite like this and know how it happened. Obverse seems normal compared to this reverse. Looks like a defraction-type effect you would see in water.

Do you have the coin in hand?
Or are these pictures that may well be doctored?

This coin sold earlier this evening on ebay.
Could easily be a scanner malfunction.
Did you buy it TaeKenDo?

No didn't buy it DBM. Was tempted but I was thinking there might be something with the photo as well and not enough time to ask the seller anything. I let it go. There was no mention of the shape in the listing either.

I'm thinking if it was a scanner glitch, the same offset would be seen across the coin, not just on the edges. letters/numbers would be infected in the same way. I also seem to remember when I was working for a coffee machine company whose machine had round cut-outs similar to what you see in electrical boxes, sometimes the round pieces would look like this. Unfortunately, I never enquired as to the cause.
