KayJay66 New Member United States 1 Posts	Posted 05/21/2023 03:19 am My son found a lot of old change so I'm just getting interested in it . On this quarter I was wondering if any of this damage was caused during the minting process or if it was all man-made. It just looks a mess to me. * Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. It's very important to have in the title. * Report this Post to the Staff

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 05/22/2023 5:19 pm to the CCF and I call them lawnmower coins. One thing to remember is that if you have a gouge with a buildup of metal, 99% of the time it's damage. Report this Post to the Staff
