mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 2957 Posts	Posted 01/08/2022 06:02 am I vote a date of 1960-D, where the 0 in date took a crazy post minting hit of some kind, and pushed the metal around Report this Post to the Staff

ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19194 Posts	Posted 01/08/2022 07:53 am The coin suffers from post strike damage. Copper, being relatively soft, is somewhat easy to displace/reshape when hit. In this case, the 0 in 1960 took a hit, and subsequent circulation has added to the distortion. Might be a fun curiosity to hold onto--for fun, certainly not profit. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 97083 Posts	Posted 01/08/2022 10:33 am I think that it is a 1961 D and the 1 got hit to form the 'c' shape. othere than that , I see post mint damage all over the coin. The neck area could be a result from improper polishing. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
