CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2731 Posts	Posted 12/13/2022 4:36 pm Certainly post strike damage but could this have happened immediately after the strike? It's odd looking.

halfamind Pillar of the Community United States 1489 Posts	Posted 12/13/2022 4:43 pm I'm trying to picture something small but heavy sliding across the chin and mouth. Definitely PMD, as you say. Report this Post to the Staff

halfamind Pillar of the Community United States 1489 Posts	Posted 12/13/2022 5:41 pm Maybe got caught/wedged in a cash-register tray? Report this Post to the Staff
CoinHI Pillar of the Community United States 2731 Posts	Posted 12/13/2022 6:08 pm Yeah halfamind it seems like machinery did it, thats why I was thinking something mint related. It is very precisely sliced and the clumped material is oddly compacted while the coin is not well circulated. Side note- It looks like a horrendous shaving accident for Abe :) "Pride is yoked with callous behavior, as humility is with compassion."
