Spence Moderator United States 34395 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 4:01 pm @515, first welcome to CCF. Second, I hope that I'm wrong, but based on this current picture, it looks more to me like someone has taken a sharp edge and made a cut in the surface of this cent, causing some of the metal to pile up on top of the cut.

Dearborn Moderator United States 94795 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 6:47 pm whoa! don't toss it yet - This could be something and maybe not, but a closer look is necessary to determine that before you toss it back.

Dearborn Moderator United States 94795 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 8:53 pm thanks for the new images - they are just fine. However, they do show a deep furrow created by a blade or something, I can see the zinc exposed in it. The high point we see is where the metal got moved to curing the cut. so, unfotunately, this is a damaged coin. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73706 Posts	Posted 09/06/2023 11:36 pm With the new images posted, it's definitely damage 100%. The metal was pushed and piled up, during the cut. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
