[QUOTE="Clawcoins, post: 3174313, member: 77814"]Why? what if smooth nose pliers damaged it, or something similar? or an unlimited amount of stuff I could think of and list off. In the normal process the coin would have a collar around it when it's minted. If it didn't have a collar you would have more specific damage which would more consistently damage each side of the coin similarily. Or maybe it wasn't fully ejected which would be consistent squishing on both sides too. But the straight edge going across *one side* it identifies something with a "straight edge" like pliers, some clamp, vice, etc. The coin dies, and finger ejector things are round/roundish. Look at this page for type of errors ==> [url]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mint-made_errors[/url] big finger print again on the left side of the obverse.[/QUOTE]
