Dryer coin.

 

I'm going to go with washing machine coin, or something of that sort

 

Yep, dryer coin. It's taken a few trips around.

 

Yep... commercial dryers do strange things to coins. We can add the OP's to the collection:

 

I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with the others. The rounded rims are just too even to have been caused by random hits in a dryer. You have to remember that a dryer is usually running when it is full of clothes. Would someone please explain how this could have occurred when contact substantial enough to have caused this is minimal at best?

I say it has been "spooned".

Chris

 

How would that happen?

 

Yep... it may have been "spooned". Sometimes it's hard to tell.

 

I third this opinion.

 

well letters are almost gone in god we trust and to me looks like its been crimp by a press but not sure that's why i asked and it has value or not and tks for all the reply's.

 

Definitely looks to have come in contact with some kind of acidic solution.

Whatever the case or however the occurrence, it's still PMD.

Agreed. Dryer, spooned (though copper is tougher than silver to spoon), etc.... it's PMD any way you slice it.
