Could you take a quick look and let me know your thoughts? Check out the attached images of the coin. If you're into coin collecting or numismatics, your insights would be super valuable in figuring out if this is indeed an error and what type it could be. Thanks a bunch for your expertise!

Earle42 Bedrock of the Community United States 10034 Posts	Posted 08/18/2023 7:22 pm Almost all odd coins you find in circulation will be post mint damage. Coins spend very little time at the mint being made where relatively few errors can happen. However coins can spend up to a century or more being tossed around and beaten up an almost infinite number of ways when circulating.
