Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73853 Posts	Posted 11/07/2025 4:41 pm Just damaged from a hit in circulation. Not an error. You should study the minting process and read up on error-ref.com. It will save you time from damaged coins, or coins with worthless doubling. https://learn.apmex.com/learning-gu...no&gbrtmp=no https://www.error-ref.com Errers and Varietys.

JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21590 Posts	Posted 11/07/2025 4:55 pm An error can only happen during the actual striking of the coin. Seeing there is no way for this to happen at that time, by default it is damage. Something to remember, about 99% of anomolies are damage, very rare to find an actual error in the wild.
