coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/27/2021 6:17 pm The mark on the rim is just a contact mark. Not a plus for the coin. The affected fields are also damage. Just probably not enough to lower the price. So don't point them out, as they are a negative, not a positive for the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34419 Posts	Posted 02/27/2021 8:16 pm I agree with @coop on these specific examples being damage to the coin, but evidence of heavy die damage, such as multiple die chips, cracks, and gouges could increase the collector value of a coin.
