Please take a look at this Cent and let me know what you think. Lam PMD? Thanks for all replies.

Wow, that's very cool looking!! I look forward to seeing what the pros say. It's odd how the displacement goes under the west side of the memorial though and did not affect it.

Dryer coin.

Agree, something like a dryer coin.

That thing is extreme, the rims slowly got beaten in and folded down like the fin rims that look like cuds and became a thin layer.

We'll never know what it was in, maybe a dryer or something else. It was in something spinning where it rolled around that gradually damaged it.

I'm in with the dryer coin... Cool looking dryer coin tho... From our Glossary -


Dryer Coin: A coin that has been extremely damaged outside of the mint by being repeatedly hit, similar to what would happen to it if it tumbled around in a dryer or similar device. In an actual dryer, the heat would soften the metal increasing the damage.
