@yoko, I think the OP used another coin in an attempt to duplicate this. Not ushering the coin they originally posted. However, that said, I think that this coin took a hit ling ago, moving the metal around a little and through the years of circulation any sign of the original impact had been rubbed off and smoothed over.
Thank you so much for responding to this newby and yofor being so welcoming! I am so new to this and your input helps me understand much more about how Coins become damaged.
Just to clarify...I did not damage this coin. The testing I did was on a couple other pennies that are worth a penny. :-) This coin is still perfectly intact. Sometimes when I type it is all I can do to formulate a sentence properly.
All of you are so much more knowledgeable than I and I really appreciate your input. Helps me to understand a little better. Looking forward to learning more.Thank you.
