It is PSD. Note the edge area is showing a wave on each side of the damaged areas. If it was in cello, it could be damaged from the sealer. In a holder, then it was damaged after the strike before it went into the container. Basically the coin is damaged. Not a premium for it if removed from the holder. Still in the holder, it would still be questionable if it still had a premium. Not worth grading. The coin would have to be worth $100-200 dollars before considering grading. This is not a premium example in that range. |

So packing process seems a bit of a stretch. I have been looking threw 2009 mint sets I bought in a large quantity for the past week in my spare time, I just found this William Henry Harrison dollar with what looked to be the same error/damage but to a lesser degree. Before reading the last reply I decided to open the lesser of the 2. Photos can be found at this link: https://drive.google.com/drive/fold...?usp=sharingLet me know what you think! Best Regards, FACE |

The problem with a problem coin is that has issues. Will the next buyer consider it? Best to have something definite, and in nice condition. They are an easier sell.

Not worth grading. Rule of thumb: if the item is worth $200 or more then it would be ideal to get it graded.

Looks to me like a Rim Fin that has partially broken away. |

Looks like a large attached rim burr to me. Questions are though. Is it from this coin or another coin?
Is the burr struck into the coin by the collar die, or is it just in the mint set capsule and it will come off if removed?
I think it would make a world of difference whether it is an attached burr, struck in debris, or just debris that got packed into the blister in assembly.
I guess it looks attached, but not sure if it was rim finning maybe that became a burr after the strike and banging around after and packaging has it looking the way it does, when if removed from the coin it would appear fine otherwise.
Hard to really tell from the pictures exactly what I'm seeing.

again sorry for the late reply, no, I'm not seeing any misalignment. It seems to have occurred during the edge lettering strike, the strike being harder than it ought to have been or possibly 2x and when the die pulled away, having cut into the laminate, began pulling a pice of laminate off with it.
