coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/01/2020 3:48 pm Looks like it spent sometime in the coin torture chamber. (also know as the garage at an evil hand torturing your coin. When he figured out it was not a believable error, what do you do with it? You spend it. An you found it. (Be glad you didn't buy it) Report this Post to the Staff

It's a vise job. Worth face value. http://www.error-ref.com/squeeze-jo...-garage-job/ Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

XavierOfGreen Pillar of the Community United States 2589 Posts	Posted 04/01/2020 3:52 pm As the poster above said, this is whats called a "vise job". This happens when two coins are placed on top of each other under high pressure, such as in a vice. Unfortunately it falls under the category of "post strike damage", that is a coin that has been damaged after it was made by the mint. As such, it is only worth face value.
