Looks like another quarter was pressed up against this one, it goes right through the rim at K9

 Yep, a perfect deduction - just PMD!

Thanks Dearborn and Rothery. I'm still learning but I'm not seeing pushed up metal in the first picture. I could be wrong but I'm not seeing much metal movement even at k9 no pushed up metal

I'll take your word for it though. Definitely not worth sending in. I may need to continue reading up on errors

This looks like it could be the real thing, but I would need to see a clearer image and closer up of the letters in LIBERTY that are intersected. A strike through would go through them without distorting the metal and just leave a depressed channel through the devices.

Thanks SamCoin. Thats what I was thinking but I've been wrong before. Practice makes perfect. This hobby takes some time as we all know

Too small to be a rim bur. Possible struck through a piece of thin wire? Probably about as thick as dental floss. Looks like it is barbed a bit, the incuse areas in the trench. It would be a minor error.

Seem to be a mirror strike. Look that the coin was strike after the first. For this year I do not thing happened to offen. Is clear that the curve was strike before the coin strike. Nice find.

Thanks coop and silviosi. The indentations kinda sold it for me. When I started collecting around 2018 I saved almost everything unless it looked like clear PMD. Looks like this was a good save

I'm leaning towards the "Pressed Edge" theory above. It looks like the deepest point of damage is at the top of the arch, with the rim keeping the damage from the field area at K:9. This would seem to show the the second coin was slightly tilted when it was pressed into this coin. If it were struck through I would expect the channel to be a single line of even depth and width, not tapered to a point at each end of it's arch. Just my Two Cents worth.

Thanks Yokozuna and Coinfrog. That does make a lot of sense. Could be PMD. Thanks to all for comments and info

Quote: It looks like the deepest point of damage is at the top of the arch, with the rim keeping the damage from the field area at K:9. That is what I think as well. I did a little experiment: 2 quarters, thin piece of wood, and a hammer on my concrete patio deck.
