Is this an error on this coin?


There is a perfectly shaped cut/slice right on the edge of the coin, looks like it might be from a die.

    Welcome. It is a scratch from the machine that wraps the rolls—it is not an error from the mint. The scratch is on the left at ten o’clock, eight, and it cuts a bit through the 3 as well. Some sellers misrepresent coins with that damage.

    There is also what looks like 3 little chips in Washington's neck.
