Yes. Other lucky holdered coins appear to have the same, typical rims of a circulation strike coin. Can it create a much wider rim? The only way...
It's because the holder was thrown out because it was all mangled. Just curious, how does such a holder cause the rim to look like that?
The holder is made of aluminum.
OK, it wasn't for nothing. Here you go with some further details of the 1893 Columbian half proof: [ATTACH]
[Spoiler]
WAIT! The second coin is from 1892! HOLY COW I can't believe I misread that! And, it has 1892 proof die markers on both sides! Is this a proof...
OK, here are graded examples of an 1893 proof Columbian. I think that the same diagnostics are there, albeit difficult to make out from the given...
I thought they were reused for the following year. I'll have to compare a graded example from 1893 and see if the diagnostics match up.
They weren't mounted, though maybe album toned? The black mark is a dark deep toned spot. The second one is struck from a proof die. But, I'm...
I've been on a roll lately lol. The first Columbian half looks as if it's a DMPL. It's got a deep mirroring like a proof strike coin. It's more...
I see a small mark, not sure what to make of it: [ATTACH]
Maybe 1917 cents don't often have this sharp edge/rim feature? Crossing fingers lol. Are there any diagnostic traits similar across all or many...
The sheen of the edge is also noticeably brighter than the matte looking obverse/reverse. I think that you can tell from the previous photos....

@robec - do you think that this edge looks like an MPL edge?
Here's the edge of my 1917... proof??: [ATTACH]
