Coinbuf Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Welcome to the forum, this is not an error just a damaged coin. Danette13 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powermad5000 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Please crop your photos so we are looking at more coin and less of the background of what the coin is sitting on. Also the photo of the reverse is too blurry to make out any features that would need to be seen. As you have posted several topics so far, please remember, not every coin that looks different will be an error. I want to agree this is just some type of physical damage from what I can see from the obverse photo as I don't know of anything in the process of striking the coin that could flatten just the rim like that, but I'd like to see better cropped pics of both sides before offering any definite opinion.

EagleRJO Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 If the rims were just worn down I would expect to see more wear at other areas. It looks almost like there wasn't much of a rim to begin with when it was struck, maybe from an undersized blank, or possibly broadstruck. What is the weight to 0.01g and diameter to 0.1mm? Also, is the reeding at the edge present? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
