    Does coin talk have a stupidity trophy? If so, I would like to award it to the idiot who did this to this poor coin. Just kidding. But they say, it's the thought that counts, right? Was in a roll from the fed.

    oh come on .. why would anyone do that to a coin.
    It *must* be a new, unfound one-of-a-kind, rare Mint Error !!

    Might not have been a human that did the deed.

    Not like it was a numismatic treasure in the first place, anyway.

    That is a rare error and highly sought after. I know because I saw one like it on Etsy for $12,000, so it must be true.

    LOL!! Isn't it ridiculous the coins that people put on sell sites. Fraud out the wazoo! Originally, I thought someone may have buffed this one down. Didn't know about the drum thing or dryer.
