<p>[QUOTE="dgvt, post: 7688208, member: 121442"]Not sure if this is an error or damage after the mint.

It’s less embarrassing and less of a waste of time if this is simply damage on a coin, if I find out here rather than going all the way to an expert to show it to. At first I was thinking it was a cud error, but I feel it’s too big. And if a cud error is basically a void in a die from a piece breaking off, I wonder how that would be the case with this... it’s a Roosevelt dime from 2000, wondering if this is a known issue, or simply messed up?
