coinman91 Pillar of the Community Canada 668 Posts	Posted 12/24/2021 2:38 pm I got this today in my change and wasn't even going to post it because of the massive gouge appears to be damage. The thing I'm confused about is the extra metal and pitting going on under the lettering and on top. What doo you think caused this? Report this Post to the Staff
