Absolutely impossible for that to have happened at the mint, unless it got run over in the mint parking lot!

Agree--post-strike damage. May have been in a parking lot (or other high risk of blunt force environment) somewhat recently, given the 'fresh' look of some of the damage.

Yeah I'm no means an expert but this appears to have been ran over or chewed up lol. If not for the damage it probably would of been a nice looking coin =)

This coin took fairly recent damage - noting how fresh some of the copper looks as opposed to the natural toning of the rest of the coin.

I didn't take it as you poking fun ,it's just my uncanny way of being sarcastic at times which I really have to try to control . No harm done ,we all know it didn't leave the mint that way .

The end result on the coin? The coin is damaged and now just a Wheat cent. Damage is damage regardless of how it happened.
