Rippled Edges???

This was one of the first coins that caught my attention and really introduced me to the world of errors. Whether it is or not. It served it's purpose. I can't believe I haven't posted it before now!

Looks like just damage.. Should keep it tho.. 09 10 11 12 are hard to find.. At least where I'm at..

 

I agree with just a penny. Looks like damage...can we see a picture of the edge of the coin where one of the "ripples" are?

 

Yes, give me a minute. I'll get it out and take pictures.

 

Sorry it took me so long! My dog was sick and I had to sit out with her.

 

No problem. I got 3 dogs myself...been there.

You can see the damage in the rim as well. Reeds are slightly wider and flatter in your picture. Definite PMD.

 

I agree with PMD - Post Mint Damage
@Leahred1967 - Many times when a person new to coin collecting sees something strange and/or different, the first thing that is assumed is that it is some type of Mint Error. That is why it is good to ask the questions and get the answers. After some time and knowledge AND a better understanding of the Minting process, you will be able to tell the difference.

Peace

 

Thank you paddyman98! Oh well, like I said, it caught my attention, so it had served it's purpose......and for that reason, I'll keep it.
