coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/31/2019 7:37 pm This coin is damaged. Possible: On a construction site, someone took Three Cents and put them between to 2X4's and hit the coins on top each other. This transfers the rim devices onto the center coin. (This one is probably the center coin) The coins were common altering the center one. Not a mint issue. Just PSD. (Post-Strike-Damage) Spendable unless you are saving copper. The damage cancels out any potential value if the coin were a collectable coin. (which it is not) Report this Post to the Staff
