<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 4952710, member: 84179&quot;]The minting and die making process is well documented and many numismatists and error specialists have studied it and understand it.&nbsp; The US mint has some videos and there have been numerous good reference links posted on here over the years.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reason these members can be so sure that this didn&#039;t happen at the mint is they know and understand the minting process and have demonstrated that knowledge through their posts on this site over the years.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are countless ways for coins to get damaged after they leave the mint.&nbsp; In order to say it&#039;s a mint error, you have to explain how this could happen during the minting process.&nbsp; I can see where your hunch might seem to make sense, but if you take the time to learn and understand the minting process, it will be easy to see that this couldn&#039;t happen at the mint.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
