Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 07/04/2021 4:54 pm Agree this is deliberate damage, perhaps on a slightly heavy planchet. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/04/2021 5:03 pm Notice the absence of the rim? Also the weight will be less than a normal coin. PSD. Wasn't struck like that are the mint. Report this Post to the Staff
merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 07/04/2021 5:23 pm Intentional post mint damage. That's not incidental wearing down, too intense for that. Sanded or ground down. Report this Post to the Staff
