In this topic alone you've uploaded almost 3MB of images for an obviously damaged coin. In the future, Please just start with one large pic of the obverse and one large pic of the reverse to start.

279773 Valued Member 276 Posts	Posted 12/23/2022 12:30 pm If a worker at the mint had used pliers on the coin. Would it or could it be considered a mint error? Report this Post to the Staff
