Please someone tell me what is going on with this coin? I first noticed the date was faded and wanted to know what may have caused this damage.
Ask the error coin experts: @Fred Weinberg; @paddyman98; @JCro57; @Paddy54; @furryfrog02; @desertgem; et al.
It's fairly common, though one like yours is a little less common. Cool find even if it isn't that valuable. Here is one I found awhile back that has both sides struck through grease.
