coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 06/26/2011 3:16 pm Pretty sure that's a brockage of some sort. I don't think it's a damaged coin. Looks like some sort of genuine error to me. Report this Post to the Staff
CaptainFwiffo Pillar of the Community United States 4132 Posts	Posted 06/26/2011 3:31 pm I'm not an expert, but maybe two blanks were stuck together when they went through they went through the rim upsetting machine, then only came apart after they were struck. Report this Post to the Staff
Wild Bill Pillar of the Community United States 744 Posts	Posted 06/26/2011 3:43 pm coppercoins.....just thinking about it....the coin only weighs 2.8 grams, I should have weighed the coin first I don't think it weighs enough to be a brockage, does it ?

mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2734 Posts	Posted 06/26/2011 4:15 pm This coin was vandalized outside the Mint. I can't say how, specifically, but the beveled margin and the strange ripples on the surface are incompatible with any known striking error. The below normal weight is also an indicator of mischief.
