You can also see damage on the 9, most likely done at the same time. PSD. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

CoinTheTerm Pillar of the Community United States 1161 Posts	Posted 09/03/2020 08:26 am with the members above, this is PSD. A well placed hit will move the metal over and even sometimes remove it entirely. No added value here. to CCF though! Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19215 Posts	Posted 09/03/2020 08:52 am Moved metal caused by a hit. Copper is a relatively soft metal, and raised detail (in copper) can be 'pushed' rather easily. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 09/03/2020 09:06 am Agree. Given the way a coin is struck, this deformation could not have occurred at the mint. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 09/03/2020 09:57 am Unless it happened post strike, in which case you can't prove if it happened before it left the mint or after it left. This is why Post strike damage coins have no value. Report this Post to the Staff
