JKK Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Yes, but it's indentation by way of a kid, a hammer, and one of his dad's punches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.j.4 Posted January 18 Author Share Posted January 18 A broken neck, just kidding, but I looked at a lot of penny and none have a circle like that on the neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because the kid's dad took the punch and hammer away from him before he had a chance to bang on any more coins. JKK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powermad5000 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Just because a coin does not look like anything you have seen before, does not make it a mint error. Damage is damage no matter how it happens and no two damaged coins are alike either. You have to first think of how something could happen during the striking of a coin before you even travel down the road of mint errors. I suggest you look over every piece of information on the site I am providing a link for. Mint errors are not the norm and are not found frequently if at all in the wild, especially on modern coins. https://www.error-ref.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
