I'd say it was just a damaged coin, except for the little protrusions that appear to be under the date. Looking for your expert opinions.

big777bill Valued Member United States 376 Posts	Posted 09/27/2010 09:55 am I'm not sure exactly what this coin is but it is not an 8 over 7. Report this Post to the Staff
SHAFTA9a Bedrock of the Community Canada 10743 Posts	Posted 09/27/2010 12:43 pm It looks to me like there is something under the second 8, and also the 9. The curl on the nine is post mint damage, I'm pretty sure. Report this Post to the Staff
