Mint cuds/breaks/chopmarks etc on the necks, got any pics? Would like to see if anything matches what mine was before and after surgery while I chew on these glorious pills, ha!

@DrBuster Best of luck with your recovery!
@emeraldatv could help
Here’s to a quick recovery
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Wishing you a speedy and complete recovery.
Here you go, but not my coin and hopefully doesn’t match what your’s looks like post surgery 😉
Mr_Spud
did you have a misplaced digit in your neck?
Basically a big fat cud on the side (tumor), so...maybe a high number if those exist too (don't recall seeing one of those ever).
praying it's benign!
Looks like the French Revolution.
Wishing you a speedy recovery and a good prognosis. Here's a dime with a neck crack.

Haven't taken the bandage off yet to see the stiches, saving this one, looks like the paper info sheet they gave me kinda.
This may not be clear (it's a Trueview) but Miss Liberty suffered a double shot to the neck while the reverse suffered four hits to the shield. I was a bit surprised that it straight graded.

Found in an ebay roll from the early days of ebay
Get well soon!

Between the die vertical die crack down thru the neck and the flow lines emanating outward from neck/chin, this one may fill the bill:

That's a monster tumor!

I'm glad my tumor wasn't big enough to warrant that ^ amount of scaring.
My sympathies.
As someone who has been fighting on and off neck pain caused by degenerative disc issues since 2009, I assumed that your surgery was related to that. Sorry to hear that it’s for a tumor removal. Best wishes going forward!
Just saw this thread, and I hope you're healing quickly. Here's one that was SEGS graded VF20 with "MARK ON NECK" noted on the label. Bought it back in 2011 and cracked it for my Dansco. It's the bold N variety.
This is almost like the perfect side (my left) and spot but a bit up and back (by/pressing the jugular, below the ear), smaller on the coin but ballpark size (figure close to quarter/half dollar coin size basically).
Here's my 1 in neck.

You’ll barely notice the mark afterwards.
This was probably more like during the surgery. Hopefully not this bad.

I want to say thank you to everyone in this thread. Got the news yesterday, benign! The scar is like this sideways under my ear, thought they were doing up/down but went horizontal. Shooter big marble size doc said, glad it's out! Been a very happy 48 hours!
Congrats!
great news!
Really glad to hear that news @DrBuster!! 👍 👍

Great to hear Dr Buster.
Good news to hear!

Marie Antoinette 1793 - mark on neck and face, had her head cut off. Congratulations, recover well.
One of my favorites… had it for over 20 years, and it would be an easy 65 or higher without the old, toned-in scratch on the neck. It doesn’t stick out, but it did make the coin a 63 and put it in my budget.
stitches status?
Most were the internal dissolve but had a piece I had to cut the other day. Still thinking it looks like that one nickel above.
Oh god that pic is horrible, ha
It looks like @OAKSTAR matched it closest in comparison to all the others
that's hardly noticeable at all!
