I'm getting ready to list this on ebay but before I do I thought I would get your opinions. I really don't know what to call this. the front looks like PMD, but the are in trust is over top the hole, which suggests to me the hole was already there when the die hit. on the back is the entire lincoln you can see his shoulder and head best. there is a wierd extra rim, and on top of the "NT" in cent is "UST" frm trust... part of the letter you on top the N, a complete S & T which touches the T in Cent. these letter look to be indents not out dents. (for lack of a better description) I don't know how this happens or if it is common. I made a collage to try to show it all hope it comes through visible....please help.  |

A coin like this is certainly not common, but there is no way this could have happened at the mint. I often can't imagine under what circumstances some coins get damaged like this but this one definitely just got mutilated.

I see a lot of PMD. Is there any place in particular on the coin where you see a potential error? |

It looks like lincoln is coming through the reverse. and the UST in trust is also visible on the reverse surrounding the T in cent

I got into AI and did some highlighting of the two main areas 1 is the Lincoln protruding and 2 is the UST indented   |

Just damage, two coins were smashed/hammered together. The line on the left side of the picture was caused by the rim of the second coin.
