I don't know. I don't think I'd accept it. You might still be able to pass it at a drive up line, especially when they're real busy, like during the lunch hours. Good question you ask, BTW.
Howdy Mountain Girl. If you can run your fingernails over the surface and it detects small ridges, it has been gone over with a tool or something, so PMD, post mint damage, and NAV, no added value. Interesting find, but barely worth 25¢. Keep your eyes open. Good luck.
Thanks everyone, just what I needed. I dont want to pay to have something graded only to find out its worthless. But you're right it is kind of cool.
hey @Mountain girl yea I'm thinking Dremel tool like @cpm9ball mentioned. whatever it was, the damage occurred after it left the mint or PMD (Post Mint Damage) for short. good luck next time....
