It appears that this was struck with some foreign object that got imprinted on Jefferson's nose. Thoughts on what that could be and how something like that could happen?

Kama7737 New Member United States 26 Posts	Posted 09/28/2022 6:28 pm I know it's impossible to tell from these picture because it so small but it really looks like it's part of the coin under magnification. So would does that make you still think it is post minting? Report this Post to the Staff
Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 09/28/2022 6:36 pm No thinking about it, that mark on the nose did not happen at the mint. 99.99% of the time when you have a gouge and built-up metal, it's PMD Report this Post to the Staff

This could not have happened at that time so it is damage, no matter how it occurred. Report this Post to the Staff
