ExoGuy Pillar of the Community United States 4421 Posts	Posted 11/26/2019 10:15 pm I agree with Conder .... looks like damage. This coin may have been heavily hammered simply to see if it was plated. I've seen some counterfeit eight real pieces that were punch-marked with simplistic, tiny characters that somewhat resemble Chinese marks. Report this Post to the Staff
