CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2773 Posts	Posted 04/07/2020 11:46 am I agree John1 that it looks like a "vise job" but some things seem off about that to me. 1. Rim structure is intact. I would think PMD would deform this area especially since these letters aren't lined up perfectly. This impression would hav to be rocked, making rim damage a certainty. 2. Not entirely sure all these devices are reversed. Anyone have examples of LMC's with damage like this? I would like to hear some expert opinions on what we see here. Thanks!

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 04/08/2020 12:37 am I think I agree with John1, looks like contact with another coin. Not sure you'll ever know exactly what happened here, only theories. Report this Post to the Staff
mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2745 Posts	Posted 04/09/2020 08:19 am I was asked to comment. As others have said, these incuse, mirror-image letters are contact marks. The letters are too incomplete for me to tell if they're from another cent, another denomination, or some kind of token or medal. In any event, this is not an error. Error coin writer and researcher.

CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2773 Posts	Posted 04/11/2020 2:28 pm Thanks for the responses! Even though this is PMD I am still curious about where these marks came from. I know it's a long shot but I have edited the images with a mirror effect in hopes someone in the CCF might recognize this now or in the future. It looks like maybe three words with a symbol below the words. I welcome any guesses. ___M____ __O__ ___U____ "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."
