Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 09/16/2023 06:36 am to the CCF! Someone has pressed coins together in a vise to make it look as if it's an error. The reverse lettering is something to look for when the impression didn't come from a die. That along with the other damage on the coin, points to modification, and not a mint error.
