coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 09/04/2021 9:13 pm Damage is the beginning of the end for a coin. 99% of incuse marks on a coin are damage. 1% are mint errors. Getting to know which is which is a path to seek here. Ask questions and get answers. We all share what we know. Edited by coop 09/04/2021 9:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff

It wouldn't surprise me if there was a matching flat spot on the other side of the "stamp".
