Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 10/10/2019 10:11 pm to the CCF! Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. The coins you've posted look to be damaged. Not errors or variety strikes. The coin with the "teeth marks" looks like it was press between the jaws of a vise. The cent that's smaller than it should be looks like it's seen the rough side of a grinder or hours of sanding. The rim is flat in some areas where the person modifying the coin went a little too far with the amount of metal they removed. Someone had too much time on their hands. Just PSD Sorry it's not better news. If you have any question about this, just let me know. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
Greasy Fingers Pillar of the Community United States 7055 Posts	Posted 10/10/2019 10:17 pm The smaller cents (62D) are meant to be the size of a dime so that they could be used in vending machines. That's what we used to do to get cheaper soda (in the 1970s) Report this Post to the Staff

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 10/10/2019 10:59 pm To keep the replies to your post from being confused, you should start a new topic for each coin you have questions about. The new coins are PSD also. The Buffalo nickel has solder on the obverse and it look like it was on the reverse also, but it's been removed. The Lincoln Cent has been pressed between other coins in a vise or metal press. It's no longer round and the image from the other coins is reversed. If it had been struck twice the second image would not be backwards. Sorry, again. It's hard to hit pay dirt on your first try. Edit: Missing word.
