Found this in pocket change. I dont think it is post mint damage. Any help would be amazing.

Why do you not think this is post mint damage? This is 100% PMD. This Lincoln has taken a beating and has an Elephant's trunk to show for it.... LOL.

That is most definitely PMD.

The photos are somewhat soft--not sharp. Given the images posted, I'm seeing lots of post strike damage--strong hint of 'road rash'. The coin (minted in Philadelphia--no P) didn't leave the striking chamber in that condition.

If that's not PMD, then I don't know what is.
It is only an error if it happens during the striking of the coin and there
no way that yours could happen at that time.

Wait, what? a hint of road rash? I think this poor coin spent its life out on the road.

I suppose it could be damage from the mint parking lot.
Rest in Peace

Thank you. Every one is a comedian these days. & & . Just seemed like it could have been something from the print due to the way the elephant trunk was gouged in.
