Many people think it's a crime to damage a coin. However I think anything that brings attention to the coins in your pocket is a good thing. So I'm gonna post damaged coins that I believe help bring attention to coin collecting. Feel free to join in.

I like that sort of thing, and have seen even more remarkable examples.

That's OK damage in my opinion. It is a common coin worth only face value, so no loss.

Richard, do you still do this, while working out on the rigs, or are you retired now?

I'm retired. I gave up working offshore in 2017 several family members were ill and it was more than my wife could cope with on her own. I got a job automating heavy construction equipment. Until April this year when I finally actually retired. Over the last 7 years I've lost three family members and two good friends. I figured it's time to retire and enjoy myself while I still can. So I turned my hobby into a business.
