If it is just PMD , I would take any guesses on what happened! Report this Post to the Staff

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21610 Posts	Posted 02/17/2022 1:15 pm Looks like it has been punched with something. You can see the damage on the reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 7512 Posts	Posted 02/17/2022 1:19 pm That looks like armature counter stamping gone wrong, someone was experimenting. and it is considered damage. Report this Post to the Staff
MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 02/17/2022 1:20 pm The cross looking feature on the obverse is raised, but I didn't see an incuse area on reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 02/17/2022 1:28 pm Thought the lines coming out from the left corner of the memorial base on the reverse were curious. Thanks all for the input. Might just keep this in my "crazy stuff people do to coins" file. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/18/2022 10:15 am Looks like what ever used was an incuse design on the punch, leaving a raised design on the coin. Just damage. The reverse shows it was hammered into the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
