coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/19/2021 12:31 pm Everything points to damage to the coin. On the outside edges of the coin when squashed, they crimp on that area: First sign of damage. This doesn't happen during the strike. The collar keeps it rounded and not dimpled like your coin. Just a normal Wheat cent with damage. Just one damaged area turns it into a cull coin. Report this Post to the Staff

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3646 Posts	Posted 11/19/2021 2:56 pm Back in the day (when dinosaurs roamed and I rode one uphill through blowing snow to and from school each day), banks gave out "Lucky Penny" gifts, with random cents encased in aluminum holders. They read "Lucky Penny" and the bank name on one side and "Keep Me And You'll Never Go Broke" on the other side. The encasing process left exactly that type of indentation on the edge. When I was a kid, I think I had them from about every bank in the Front Range. Report this Post to the Staff
