Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 06/14/2022 6:21 pm Looks to be a classic Dryer Coin. Not an error, just lots of damage from knocking around in a washer or dryer for a long time. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 98032 Posts	Posted 06/14/2022 7:54 pm I'm not sure if a dryer would carve that groove so perfectly (or dent and bend) around the coin on both sides. Maybe was in a bezel and worn on a chain - that would explain the smooth wear pattern on the interior of the coin on both sides. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/15/2022 10:55 am Just a damaged coin. Once damaged, it really doesn't matter how it happened. (Out brains distract us trying to figure stuff out like this) Report this Post to the Staff
