Uniden500 New Member United States 8 Posts	Posted 05/26/2024 10:14 pm I bought this coin many years ago. I was curious if this is an error or something else. Sorry for the image quality, I used a bad compressor. Thanks for any help. I'm new to error Coin World and still learning. * Edited by Staff to Add Year / Mintmark / Denomination to Title. It's very important to have in the title. * Report this Post to the Staff

Oldgrouchyguy Pillar of the Community United States 632 Posts	Posted 06/15/2024 2:31 pm The damage is due to Impacts of a nature-this is obvious due to rising sides seen around some of them. The different sizes lead me to think this is a whimsey involving centering punches for drills Report this Post to the Staff
