John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 11/02/2021 04:31 am . Not an error. It is PMD=post mint damage. Most likely from a vending/counting/wrapping machine. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34440 Posts	Posted 11/02/2021 06:13 am @max, first welcome to CCF. Second, I grew with @john1 that the number 6 in the date has been mechanically damaged. We see this somewhat often here, with either the final digit of the date or the L of LIBERTY being partly flattened.

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19239 Posts	Posted 11/02/2021 07:21 am Agree with the above, moved/displaced metal caused by a hit. Copper is a relatively soft metal. Report this Post to the Staff
