chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 08:49 am Looks to me like PMD. I can't imagine something that could have happened at the mint that would cause such an issue.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21610 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 2:28 pm Definitely happened after it left the mint or else the reverse would be weak in the area that was missing on the Obverse. Just another damaged cent. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 96315 Posts	Posted 12/02/2022 2:31 pm Seeing how the reverse is fully struck, and the apperance of the obverse, I would say that the 'thin' part was ground or sanded down.

merclover Bedrock of the Community United States 10635 Posts	Posted 12/03/2022 03:35 am Most likely from the looks of it as others have mentioned, the damage appears to be intentional. Interesting, but not an error and no premium I'm afraid. Report this Post to the Staff
