Doesnt look like PMD. Problem is on the edge of the coin at about 10:00 o clock. Theindent is beneath the lettering. Help appriciated!

    I am a total rookie but could it be coin machine "wheel" damage? If yes, that is PMD.

    Edit: Disregard this. I am wrong

    Just curious to why its beneath the lettering. Pictures I have isnt showing whats going on. Same resemblance of a strike through. But beneath the word marsh

    Looks like a deep gash in the planchet prior to striking.

    MS66 taste on an MS63 budget.

    @Coin_nut1977.... Is the mark incuse or raised? I could not determine that from the pictures. Cheers, RickO

    Might be planchet damage before the strike or lamination flaw? Mmm. Peace Roy

    Interesting... I am surprised at the metal fill of the letters over the incuse mark. Cheers, RickO

    surface flaw in the planchet. Note the struck letters extended deeper beyond it.

    Natural forces of supply and demand are the best regulators on earth.

    Is this considered a mint error?

    Look at the lighting.

    The highlights and shadows say that it is raised.

    Looks incuse to me, based on lighting, and as such, not a die gouge.

    Better pics would help.
