I'm going to go with the numismatic term... "PMM" = Post Mint Mangled

Have to agree with the "new-ish" terminology.

I am curious because you realized it did have damage but you didn't spell out what part, separate from the damage, you were wondering about?

Post mint mangled how does that happen ? Or did someone do this to it ? I got others also that are weird looking to but this is the main coin always wanted to find something out about as it is reason I am collecting saw this and was hooked love seeing how bad some these coins really are even if worthless in value . But not to me I wouldn't sell this coin for nothing have had it a good 6-7 years now and it ain't going anywhere

Coins get beat up, abused, scuffed up in parking lots, used a shims, so on... Pretty much any damage you can think of.

:eureka:
Of course, there are great number of coins that are "intentionally" tampered with, to make them appear as an error.
I see this all the time,... And the "Under – Educated" are buying these for ridiculous prices!
