    Anyone ever see a coin like this?
    Very strange collar here.... Ive seen some rough looking collars on a Morgan before, but nothing even remotely close to this. The anomaly, in question travels all the way around the coin, on both sides, but is more pronounced on the obverse.
    Any ideas?? 20180123_144530.jpg 20180123_143217.jpg 20180123_143213.jpg 20180123_145000.jpg 20180123_145030.jpg 20180123_145051.jpg 20180123_142937.jpg 20180123_144748.jpg To specify, the collar has these weird looking incuse lines all over it. Almost like someone filed it, but i would expect file marks to be straight and somewhat parallel. These are more jagged looking and not very uniform in size.

    It's had the rim filed - probably to
    take some silver away, or possibly
    just damaged from some other source.

    Not an error.....sorry

    I was thinking maybe some kind of coin bezel damage. I have seen bezels for Morgans.

    Agree with above, most likely filed to fit in a bezel.
