ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19165 Posts	Posted 03/03/2021 4:26 pm Coin was scraped against an abrasive surface (under a heavy load)--like asphalt in a parking lot, or a concrete floor in a heavy machine shop. Cool example. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96447 Posts	Posted 03/03/2021 5:14 pm definitely deliberate damage to the poor quarter. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 03/03/2021 5:34 pm to the CCF! It looks as if someone tried to stop their car on a ~~DIME~~, QUARTER in this case. Just damage, nothing in the minting process could cause this. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!!

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 03/03/2021 5:39 pm I agree with all of the above, simply post mint damage ( PMD) regardless of how the damage was done. Spend it, if you can get someone to take it, to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff

lcutler Pillar of the Community United States 1657 Posts	Posted 03/04/2021 05:02 am There is no way to say exactly how the damage occurred, it is for certain though that it did not happen during the minting process. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/04/2021 7:57 pm Probably shot across the parking lot, like bullet. What ever happened to it, it is a damaged coin for sure. Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16832 Posts	Posted 03/04/2021 10:00 pm I would assume "caught in machinery of some kind". Tree mulcher, or something like that. Or, if it was "in the wall" of a house, perhaps some sort of construction machinery, which damaged it, then propelled it into its resting place. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
