That Coin Dude Pillar of the Community United States 1427 Posts	Posted 01/02/2021 01:27 am No, that is from a coin rolling machine, most likely at a bank. And coins aren't cast, they are struck with a hammer-like device with extreme force. Report this Post to the Staff

Rothery Pillar of the Community 2145 Posts	Posted 01/02/2021 1:53 pm It almost looks like the "scrapes" go under the lettering which would point to planchet damage before the strike. Better pictures will be needed to tell for sure. Report this Post to the Staff
