Bullnuke Valued Member United States 184 Posts	Posted 01/16/2011 6:53 pm Found this about a month ago stuffed in the middle of a roll while searching pretty sure it is PMD but something kept me from putting it in my junk pile. I think it is a hammer job just not sure. http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...strthru1.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...strthru2.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...strthru3.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...strthru4.jpg the second coin I found last week and appears to be struck through or cut. http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...2000cut1.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...2000cut2.jpg http://www.coincommunity.com/forum/...2000cut3.jpg Any help would be greatly appreciated Kie Report this Post to the Staff

coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 01/17/2011 07:24 am The first coin is a genuine error coin. I believe these are called 'indents' and are the result of a planchet falling into the coining chamber partially covering another planchet being struck. The coin is scratched which will definitely affect value, but it's genuine. no doubt about it. The second coin was damaged by what looks like snips of some sort. Report this Post to the Staff
Bullnuke Valued Member United States 184 Posts	Posted 01/17/2011 09:15 am Everyone Thanks for the quick responses. I looked up indent error and that appears to be what it is. I was almost certain it was a hammer job as I found 2 within a couple rolls of each other, the other is also a 2000 and in better shape (I took pictures of the wrong one). I really thought the other one was going to be a genuine strike-thru. The way the bottom was not sharp and the cut area has the bubbly zircalloy thing going, thought maybe feeder fingers, oh well. Thanks again, I learn something new every time I post or even just read the posts. Kie Report this Post to the Staff
pyrbob Rest in Peace United States 1943 Posts	Posted 01/17/2011 11:43 am I was wrong on the first one. I looked at it quickly and missed that it was struck out of the collar. It appears to be a broadstrike with an indent. Sorry Kie, glad the others picked me up. Report this Post to the Staff

I actually thought the first coin was a garage job just couldn't figure out how they did it. and the second one was from the mint, as usual I got it backwards Kie Report this Post to the Staff
