<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 3902255, member: 84179&quot;]In all honesty, I have no idea how it was damaged.&nbsp; The important point however, is that it could not have occurred at the mint.&nbsp; You’ve received responses from some members who are extremely knowledgeable of the minting and die making processes.&nbsp; These are well understood and documented, so with some study, it’s possible to differentiate with a high degree of certainty whether a coin is an error and whether it’s damage. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Since there are countless ways for a coin to be damaged, you may never know what happened.&nbsp; Just don’t get hung up on trying to explain how a coin was damaged. Spend the time learning the minting process.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
