It was attacked.
Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.
Random damage.

Damaged, how doesn’t really matter.
Someone had too much time on their hands
It looks like it was put in a vice and bent to an angle then straightened… twice with the bends perpendicular to one another.
The bends run through the date and above and parallel to each bend it 2 vice clamp marks.
It's all about what the people want...
id be inclined to agree but on the reverse the damage looks unfamilar over all who would do this to a coin and why? besides bordom
Perhaps it was run over a vehicle. Then it got stuck to the tire so it slid a little ways.
