<p>[QUOTE=&quot;phankins11, post: 2036871, member: 70703&quot;]I was going through some LMCs which are still in the mint cello, which have been cut apart from the original set. The first thing i noticed was the toning on the coin...so I picked it up to look closer. Whomever cut this guy away from the set cut a bit too close and actually cut the cello open on one end. It seems like any time i get a cello pack that&#039;s been partially cut open it also seem the coins always tone in some manner if they&#039;ve not been pulled out...</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyhoo...as I looked further I noticed some shenanigans on the right side rim of the coin...so I decided to pull it out and look at it up close with my loupe. here are some pics for your enjoyment...I wonder what made this damage...was it a mint error or, more likely, the process of putting the coin into the cello pack.</p><p><br /></p><p>In the cello</p><p><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-NOd8XhdJZAE/VIsp2ik2BjI/AAAAAAAAHZY/vgSBJYaNrYk/s800/IMG_20141212_123054418_HDR.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The opening in the cello</p><p><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-uJNpNyLGvzE/VIsp3Ul-7DI/AAAAAAAAHZc/xPUys_mdpCg/s800/IMG_20141212_123105542_HDR.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>The dmage</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-m0C6_Y9PCoE/VIsp08C-KjI/AAAAAAAAHY0/cBvx2efeerg/s800/IMG_20141212_122809087_HDR.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-tCDTcYSuBi8/VIsp05mLNQI/AAAAAAAAHY4/ynwpnFvXZ8I/s800/IMG_20141212_122742715_HDR.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Some cool toning</p><p><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-bGVjYCfgOQU/VIsp045FzBI/AAAAAAAAHY8/VYUZq-_aiiI/s800/IMG_20141212_122703444_HDR.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
