coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/16/2022 11:23 am This occurs after it left the mint, probably in a garage somewhere. Not a mint error. Probably intentional to make it look like what they thought an error coin could look like. When they realize it didn't look like a mint error, they spent it. Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 96842 Posts	Posted 06/16/2022 1:37 pm Please do not post up screen shots of your coins, a real picture is far better in quality to see details and natural color of the coin. also a full coin image is important to have an overall view of it. But that said, It looks like sever tire damage (was driven is then skidded) It looks badly scraped and damaged. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 06/17/2022 12:55 am Please always post full photos of the entire coin, both sides, and always use your camera directly (no screen shots). I agree, this appears to be a very bad/deep scrape, certainly post mint damage. No way could it have left the mint looking like this. Report this Post to the Staff
