    pickin, while I have your attention, my second image near the top showing the full Kanaka coin image shows a few marks to the right of the 25 cent lettering. I see lots of them on many coins. Are these marks caused when bags are thrown on each other? Just trying to kill a few birds with one stone! Lol!

    If so that is not from a clash. That is disputed as being either a stuck thru metal from a reeded edge, and a bag mark from a reeded edge. It isn't valuable and considered a distraction from the overall condition of the coin.

    I look at these marks and think of them as damage after the coin was produced. PMD! I can’t imagine finding a rare coin and having marks like this on the surface.

    It happens with any coin that has a reeded third side. Yes most call it damage.

    Hi Keifer, welcome to ct. Im new here as well but you’re in the right place for answers. Your images are clear but experts here like images of both sides.
    My background is limited so I’ll refrain from commenting and let the professionals chime in and learn as well.

    Keifer try to get your photos uploaded correctly. You can't use most outside photo storages. You will have to upload them directly from your gallery, if on a phone.
    Most here will not click on untrusted links.

    Keifer, I’m surprised nobody has chimed in yet? I can see the area you have questioned and I’ll say it looks like a die clash? Someone will correct me if I’m wrong. The obverse displays some funky marks as well. Pmd, scratches, ding? If nobody keys in, I’d start a new post and see if your questions are answered quicker. Until then, put the coin away and keep looking.

    Try to upload the photos from the first source you don't have to upload them to Ct first. If you can copy and paste works well for me.
    Start a new thread with the images you will get more opinions and direction/help.
