<p>[QUOTE="Oldman, post: 327666, member: 11986"]That looks post mint, But I have seen stuff like that come out of MINT and fed rolls before so its a hard call. The only way to know for sure that its POST mint as in Well after it left he mint is to see if the color is different around the area in question, by that i mean is it brighter and clean looking were the rest of the 8 should be? Or is there any other damage around the area of the 8 that looks clean? Like a DING mark on the edge of the coin? Again i have seen stuff like this come right out of mint BU rolls. So there is a real chance it happened at the mint, But After the coin was made. ( THUS STILL BEING POST MINT ).</p><p>But there is also another chance that something like a sliver of scrap metal got jammed for a few coins and made the mark. Either on the Die or the blank slug its self. Its really just one of those Questionable things. If you even find out for sure. I would like to know what caused it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
