    Greetings all, I'm guessing this is environmental but I don't see any contact Marks. The send is whacked out of shape it looks wavy from the side and it looks bent. How could you get a coin to look like that without any contact marks? Thanks all IMG_20230921_154606405.jpg IMG_20230921_154638825.jpg IMG_20230921_154453456.jpg IMG_20230921_154501675.jpg IMG_20230921_155653541.jpg IMG_20230921_114435341.jpg IMG_20230921_114001552.jpg IMG_20230921_114001552.jpg

    This was probably used as a screwdriver. Bent cent.

    You can bend zinc cents with a wood dowel and a hammer.

    Put a zinc cent in a cloth towel and put it in a vise. Hit the top the sticks out with a hammer. Take it out of the vise and unwrap it. It will be bent with no marks.
