Could this be a milling error
I got this 1953 Lincoln penny back with some change at a store. The shine and the feeling of the coin caught my attention, when I got home I checked it out and it weighed 3.84 grams and was 20 mm wide and 2mm thick on the rim. I looked thru different websites to see what it could be and found on error-ref maybe it was a milling error. Any opinions would be gratefully appreciated.

Re: Could this be a milling error
It's an encased coin and damaged, it's not a mint error and this could not happen at the mint.

Re: Could this be a milling error
Encased would that be a token and it was removed from the case it was in? I looked it up after your reply. I did not know about encased. Thank you for the reply.
