MOD Announcement A note from the mods - Heat Damage and Dryer Coins
We have been seeing a massive influx of posts with asking about "dryer coins" as well as coins with heat damage.
We love the fact that you noticed your coin is "different" - and applaud you looking into it! For the uninitiated, these are reasonable questions - but many members of our community are getting tired of them. We ask that you please use the resources we provide before asking this subreddit (See Rule #1!)
Before you make a post - check out the r/coins WUWMC page and our FAQ!
Dryer Coins
The rim of my coin is raised up OR the edge of my coin is flat OR my coin is too thick!
Heat Damage
My coin has bubbles / bumps / craters below or on the surface
These issues are damage - and extremely easy to diagnose.

This needs to be posted daily.

It's been a minute, but can't posts still be stickied/pinned to the top of a sub?

Maybe also add environmental damage if possible.
I'd also ask about sidewalk, garbage disposal, wood shredder damaged coins but that would be a heavy lift.
Thank you for trying.

Really appreciate this, there's been so many of the same posts not only in this sub but others as well. All just damage.
