Dearborn Moderator United States 94786 Posts	Posted 03/07/2023 8:41 pm yes, just damage done a long time ago (judging by the toning of the gouges) Collecting since 1972.

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 03/08/2023 4:57 pm The big thing to remember is, if you have a trough dug out of the coin, and a buildup of metal on the edges of the trough, 99.99% of the time it's damage. Doesn't matter if it had a legate error or variety, this much damage renders this coin worthless. Report this Post to the Staff
