    What is the defect you are showing us in this photo ?

    The rim looks fine to me, apart from a possible low spot possibly caused by wear.

    Hi I believe they are quite common if it was more of an off centre strike the value would increase proportionally to the mistrike IMHO

    My dad gave me this 2010 $2 coin the other day, it has obviously been too close to the press and lost a small chunk.
