Denomination to Title. It's very important to have in the title. ***I just got interested in coins. I have quite a few but I think only a few are maybe worth anything. This I'm totally lost on. Anyone know anything about this?

Someone sanded it down and squeezed it in a vise. Notice how the lettering
Is backwards. Welcome to the forum.

 To CCF! I agree with chipjones. PMD. Errers and Varietys.

I'm confused. So is this trash?

Failed attempt of someone trying to make an error coin. The edges seem to have been reeded so I believe its a quarter sanded down to the copper layer. Then they tried to make an off-center strike of a dime and failed miserably.

 with Seeker_101: Quote:
It is the size of a half dollar Still it is damaged. Someone took some tool and purposely removed the outer layer of a coin, perhaps a half dollar, then put it in some pressure device, perhaps a vice, with another coin, perhaps a dime, and squeezed them together to produce this damaged piece of metal that you posted.

To answer your question; Sanded down means, someone took sand paper and or a file to the coin until the design was erased.

Certainly not the worst PMD I've ever seen, but PMD none the less. As stated above Note the backwards lettering. |
