    Error Other | 1957 D error

    What's this? I don't even know what to call it. Is it struck on the wrong planchet? Or has it been put in some form of bezel or jewelry? I'm lost?

    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.
