JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21610 Posts	Posted 07/14/2022 12:00 pm That looks raised, a Struck Through would be incuse. Agree with some possibility of heat damage. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/14/2022 12:09 pm Looks like it took a hit from a blunt punch? PSD Just a Wheat cent now. Report this Post to the Staff

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 07/14/2022 10:05 pm Definitely looks like heat (blowtorch) damage, post mint of course. Report this Post to the Staff

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 07/15/2022 02:03 am More food for thought. Though some things line up, Some do not. Fuse box coin maybe in play. Thanks, Doug. Edited by Halo1st 07/15/2022 02:05 am Report this Post to the Staff
