Looks like circulation/wrapper damage to me.

What is circulation/wrapper damage?

I don't see any errors but I do see lots of damage. Remember, it is only an error if it happens during the striking of the coin so unless you can convince me that it somehow happened at that time, it is PMD. |

A circulated coin, is a coin that shows wear & has been used in business transactions, etc. Note: the word GOD seems to have been depressed/squished a bit, I assume that was due to the coin being subjected to the crimping/wrapping process, being put into the paper roll w/ 49 other cents.

This coin shows vending/wrapping machine damage through IN GOD WE TRUST and additional flattening along the obverse rim. Vending machines can damage the coin as it's forced through the mechanism and wrapping machines can allow the crimping jaws to make contact with the surface of the end coin in the roll and cut a ring into that coin as they turn.

To answer your question, No, not on this coin. Various post mint damage ( PMD) involved, not no errors, sorry.  |

No problems about it not being an error. I really need to see coin-making in the process. I have never seen it. I never thought of vending/wrapping machine. Thanks for a clear explanation.

Ah, the joys of coin collecting--we are always learning, even after decades in the numismatic trenches.

Can the same type of damage also affect the date and the world "Liberty?"

Damage is not errors. Damage reduces a coin to face value. Not a good thing for a coin to look at it worst.
