Ben_pennies Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 Hello everyone. Well this is definitely something that happened in the mint and is not PMD. What do you call this? Die clash? What is it a bug?

Reno Raines Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 As usual whenever a user claims something isn't PMD it is PMD nothing more. I wonder if we'll be seeing this coin on eBay or Etsy anytime in the near future with the seller claiming it to be a very rare mint error.

Popular Post Sandon Posted August 14 Popular Post Share Posted August 14 The closest type of mint error to which your 1944-S cent bears any resemblance would be a "strikethrough" resulting from a foreign object lying on the reverse die or planchet as the coin was being struck. The only other possibility of which I can think would be a major planchet flaw. The problem with both of these ideas is that most of the lettering beneath the depressed area and the affected wheat stalk is visible, some of it bent along with the depression. This indicates that the coin had already been struck when the depression was created. This constitutes post-mint damage, not a mint error. The other small depressions and marks on this heavily circulated coin are also consistent with damage, not a mint error.

Coinbuf Posted August 14 Share Posted August 14 I think @Sandon did a great job of explaining why your coin cannot be a mint error. Something was pressed into the rev of the coin after it was minted, whatever it was may have has some wires or strings attached to it which also left those thin impressions that your second set of photos show. In the end it is all PMD. JT2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And while you're at it get a life I told you the truth about your coin. If you're going to be overly sensitive when someone tells you the truth about your coins then perhaps you don't need to be here as some of our other members are even more scarcastic than I am. Have a nice day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
