<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rascal, post: 1905656, member: 29239&quot;]Donald there is no way possible for this coin to have been made this way at the mint. the coin dies are a round solid piece of steel , the dies for the cent coins are much more larger in diameter than your coin and definately would not fit down inside of the raised rim . if it had been struck at the mint the raised rims would have been flattened down level with the field of the coin. I&#039;m about 100% sure that what you have here is what us collectors call a clothes dryer coin because of the raised rims. folks used to cut down cents to make dime size slugs for vending machines but in this case the raised rims would be gone. when coins get&#039;s caught up in commercial clothes dryers this is what they sometimes come out looking like.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
