Tumorxi New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 05/23/2021 6:23 pm Is this a trial error or damage? You can see a few pillars on the reverse and barely see the Y in liberty along with a faint portrait of Lincoln, the coin also has no rim. Report this Post to the Staff

Tumorxi New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 05/23/2021 8:06 pm Thanks for the info, what about the non existent rim? It has an outward "V" shape? Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19229 Posts	Posted 05/23/2021 9:25 pm The rim was a casualty in the abrading process--long gone. It's possible the abrading was intentional, and the 'V' shape was a result. Edited by ijn1944 05/23/2021 9:25 pm Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 05/23/2021 11:12 pm The fact there was no rim was the giveaway it isn't a mint error. Just post mint damage ( PMD). to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff
