Found this coin roll hunting and have never encountered one quite like this. Something weird is going on at the date and rim. There's a Cud on the lower edge. On the reverse it's either a very weak strike or struck through a LOT of grease. There's also a small Cud at "pluribus." Can't quite figure the sequence on the press that would cause all those together.

No errors, just damage. PMD. Could be a Dryer Coin as stated.

As noted, this is a Dryer Coin. I have an extreme example that my dad had in his collection of strange coins that he carried it in his pocket for more years than I can say.

You have to wonder how long these coins were crashing around to have the rims fold over the devices as seen.

While it's only worth silver melt value, It's worth much more to me.
