coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/25/2021 10:20 pm Looks like a silver melt coin. The damage removes any collectable value. The silver price is the way to go on this one. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34441 Posts	Posted 04/26/2021 05:28 am @sam, first welcome to CCF. Second, yes it looks like damage to me too. You can see the start of one gouge at the base of the first L and then it proceeds up through the right side of the letter O. A second, nearby gouge cuts through the letter O and causes that weird-looking "loop".
