    How the heck was this done? Has anyone ever seen this before? Somebody in a machine shop? There are NO marks along the rim or the obverse to show holding or clamping. I'll put it in the oddities pile.

    I've seen many other coins like it. It was vandalized by a lathe, milling machine, or similar machine tool.
