coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/07/2023 12:34 pm Note the line on the '8' is parallel to the rim. This was done post strike. Perhaps a counting machine/vending machine damaged this coin. But this is not a mint error. Post strike damage to the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
