[QUOTE="Fred Weinberg, post: 2989667, member: 86437"]These bad dents aren't shiny because the coin circulated after someone damaged it. Don't know what you mean by 'strange mint test' or 'internal'. I assure you it's not a mint 'testing' anything, and if you mean someone did it internally at the Mint, that's not correct either. As I've said numerous times, you'd be surprised what people do to their coins on purpose, and/or what can occur to coins by accident. Please remember just because it looks a bit different, doesn't mean it's an error. And, minting coins is a manufacturing process - there are coins struck from worn or overused dies, or other minor anomalies that are part of the minting process, and might be interesting in the study of the minting process, but are not considered errors -[/QUOTE]
