1 penny : Mint or after mint damage?

Hi,

Do you know if it is a mint or after mint damage on this coin. Normarly, i will say after mint damage but in this case i'm not 100% sure. I ask this question because the word Elizabeth is extremly low on the coin and there is a crack near the rim. Plus, damage look like a shape and revers side look OK (letter A and K.G are a bit crushed only).

Thanks.

Looks post mint. Elizabeth is in the normal position.

 

Hi Rockdude,

"Elizabeth is in the normal position."... yes, but the word ELIZABETH is almost delete on the left side of the Queen. You can compare with the word REGINA.

Thanks.

 

Probably that way from a weak strike.
