( 3.012 grams ) Is this anything worth investigating???? 1B7ED806-93C7-409E-B859-222DC01E6935.jpeg

    Not worth investigating. Someone purposefully damaged the coin for an unknown reason. The weight is a little low but within tolerances I think.

    Worth 1 cent.

    Post mint damage. People do many things to coins when bored. Vice jobs, spooning, coca cola baths, Mercury dipping.
