    Without a doubt, Post - Post - Post Mint Damage....

    See all the bumps and bruises on the coins edge....not an error coin

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news....

    I'd go with post mint damage. One item that "sticks Out" is where it goes outside what would be the normal coin diameter. This would not happen in a collar with a ragged clip.
    Give Blood (Red Bags) & Platelets (Yellow Bags)!

    Definitely not a Mint error. That thing looks like someone dug it out of the ground with a backhoe. image

    Incomplete planchets wanted, especially Lincoln Cents & type coins.
