ERROR? or SELF INFLECTED? Could this happen to a coin, during minting? 213sarah

The "dome" is hard to see in your photos but the coin appears to be damaged.

 

post mint damage. you can see on the obverse there is a ring where the pressure was applied to push out the reverse.

A lot of jewelry has coins in it, that have been domed. I have seen silver and gold coins domed & added to jewelry, usually bracelets. Definitely damaged.

 

That's exacly what i thought! thanks! 213sarah

 

Yep, that's PMD.

 

so, PMD = JUNK! This COIN TALK is very helpful. Thanks, for all that respond. 213sarah

 

I'd keep it, it's a wheat!

 

PMD isn't alway junk. Sure, it gets rid of value, but I still collect PMD coins that I find interesting. If nothing else, I have them for a reference of possible PMD's.

 

PMD. Self inflicted I don't think so.

 

No, PMD = Not an error. There are plenty of PMD coins that are still valuable.
