mrak Valued Member United States 99 Posts	Posted 04/12/2023 9:49 pm Unsure about this one. Normal diameter, thinner than average, skews light @4.85g. Initially thought Dryer Coin but wondering if might be a low pressure strike instead? The mint mark looks pretty mushy. I would think this location is normally fairly protected so likely not a normally struck but dryer damaged coin? Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34439 Posts	Posted 04/12/2023 10:29 pm Since it looks heavily worn and is on the light side, my vote is for this being damage rather than a mint error.
