John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/14/2020 05:04 am to CCF. Photo of reverse? Looks like damage of some sort. It did not leave the mint like that.Not an error. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5785 Posts	Posted 03/14/2020 08:17 am Coins like this are interesting at first glance. I agree about the high heat, an image of the reverse and it not having left the mint like that. Since it is in a small, centralized area it is probably from the torch.

Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 03/14/2020 08:30 am I agree with @lcutler. When we see this sort of bubbling on a clad coin, we ascribe it to excessive heat--i.e. a "campfire coin".

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/14/2020 11:40 am Note the rim. This should be circular. When it is altered, the coin has been damaged. Looks like as already mentioned, the heat created bubbles between the cladding and then flattened. (probably wouldn't work in a cending machine without the flattening) Collect the best, spend the rest. Damage doesn't increase value on a coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Soflo85 New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 03/14/2020 4:50 pm Thank you yes for letting me know it was damaged I was wondering what was going on. It's nice to get an opinion from people who know about errors. Report this Post to the Staff
