Peace Dollar -- what happened here?

Hello forum members. Any ideas how this happened? Is it simply a metal straight edge and an Exacto knife or something else?

Welcome to the forums @Sundog605.

Your assumption sounds on target.

@Sundog605....Welcome aboard... The coin has been intentionally defaced - PMD (Post Mint Damage)... No numismatic value beyond melt....Cheers, RickO

it seems spot on

It would make a good pocket piece. Give it 20 years and you will no longer see the scratches.

Yes, probably done by a machine as all of the lines are very straight.

Somebody was bored and this is the result.

Actually, close examination reveals that many are not straight, IMO

Defaced counterfeit?

@Sundog605 "Is it simply a metal straight edge and an Exacto knife"

@mustangmanbob "Please, just melt it."

What fun is that? Then it can't pop up here again in 30 years as a new error.

Yup!

Sundog605 · July 19, 2019 3:28PM

Thank you for all your responses.

I hope it is a counterfeit. The punishment fits the crime. Peace Roy
