    No. It certainly looks like a coin cut after it left the mint.

    No. Just a damaged coin.

    This was the first thing I thought of when I saw it but I thought I'd get some professional opinions
    Thank you.

    As the "clip guy" in the forum, I feel the need to add to the chorus that your coin was in fact damaged post Mint. If it was real, at least three people would have tagged me in the thread by now. ;)

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
