SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 09/05/2023 1:22 pm I see a small dent from circulation damage... why do you think this is a staple? And where do you believe they're using such tiny staples? Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 94728 Posts	Posted 09/05/2023 1:32 pm The shape looks like a small staple, but combined with the gouge in would appear that this coin took a hit and created a furrow and a small mound.

Spence Moderator United States 34393 Posts	Posted 09/05/2023 1:47 pm Yes it looks interesting, but is not a staple, just the "smushed" metal from a small circulation ding. You could confirm by checking with a magnet, since staples are made from steel.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73628 Posts	Posted 09/05/2023 1:49 pm I agree, just a circulation ding that caused the metal to get pushed and piled up. PMD. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
