1967 error find? 7 cut in half

#1 Unread post by 1happynurse »

Hi All, I've been change searching forever and usually just put the weirdos aside, this caught my eye, at first I thought it was just wrecked dryer change. When I looked closer I noticed the 7 is cut in half, there's also a cool mark in the shoulder and some other markings throughout the coin. I wasn't sure how many pictures to post, worrying it's too many, lol. Thanks for your help!

Thank you, my gut said not a mint error, but the appearance of the 7 w its remains still on the coin and looking severed caused me to pause. I appreciate the expert advice!
