HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 24863 Posts	Posted 07/20/2023 12:21 am Yep, that cent has been heavily damaged. It did not leave the mint looking like that. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 07/20/2023 06:33 am It may have been cut down to use as a dime in a vending machine. This one is rougher that most, but I've seen lots of cents modified like this. ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
