HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25244 Posts	Posted 01/27/2024 03:30 am No need for close-ups. It looks like that cent was mashed, as the dents on the obverse and those on the reverse are in line with each other. PMD. I'm thinking that something like this was involved.

donnie59 Pillar of the Community United States 781 Posts	Posted 01/27/2024 09:24 am Admittedly this does appear to be PMD, but I find it strange that some of the device details are clearly visible in some of the dents. Normally the details on the devices would be obliterated as well if they were caused after the strike. Just my thoughts. Report this Post to the Staff
