Wrekkdd Pillar of the Community Canada 3328 Posts	Posted 11/12/2021 12:42 pm Not sure exactly what caused it but it's PMD, possibly done on purpose to try and sell as a mint error. Report this Post to the Staff
JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21646 Posts	Posted 11/12/2021 12:42 pm I have seen that before. I may be wrong but I think it is caused by the crimping machine that seals the package. Report this Post to the Staff

Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7516 Posts	Posted 11/12/2021 1:26 pm At first it looks cool but as mentioned it is a damaged coin. I have a Dime sample still in mint Cello. Edited by Chase007 11/12/2021 1:26 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/12/2021 1:31 pm It is were noticed when you received the coin, you could have received a replacement. But too late now. The damage turns it into a cull coin. (You could save it to show to new collectors on what not to collect. (Show and tell item) Edited by coop 11/12/2021 1:33 pm Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19229 Posts	Posted 11/12/2021 2:15 pm Yes, crimping/sealing machine damage. Sadly, mint sets were not asssembled at a slow, loving pace. Report this Post to the Staff
