<p>[QUOTE=&quot;-jeffB, post: 3711540, member: 27832&quot;]That sort of circular gouge is usually damage from a coin rolling machine (the kind that rolls the end of the paper, rather than folding it over). I&#039;m not 100% sure that&#039;s what it is on this coin -- usually the ring is a bit larger in diameter, because it&#039;s closer to the coin&#039;s edge -- but it&#039;s definitely a gouge and not a mint error.</p><p><br /></p><p>The dents are damage. You see the dents on the rim in particular? There isn&#039;t any way that can happen while the coin is being struck, because of the way the upsetting process and striking process work. It&#039;s just damage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
