JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21610 Posts	Posted 08/28/2022 11:27 am Not an error. An error can only occur during the striking of the coin. Seeing this could not have happened at this time, it has to be damage. How it occurred doesn't matter. Damage is damage. Report this Post to the Staff
