Thanks, how do the random letters get deposited along the damaged edge? Are they coming through from the opposite side or did it picked that up from whatever it?
@chicago, I do see some bumps in the flattened area, from abotu 3 to 6 o'clock on the obverse. Whatever flattened this coin out had some surface texture which allowed some of the displaced metal to end up proud.
