I've had this coin for over 20 years and although it shows some severe edge damage at 9 O' clock on the reverse and is lightly struck you get attached to things you have had for a long time. Regarding the edge damage I'm wondering if this was inflicted when the coin was minted or at a later stage. Any thoughts are welcome.

 

I didn't pay much for the coin probably $AU 20 - $AU 30 with the portrait looking much better in the hand than the scan suggests.

Thanks

Given there is a mark at the same point on both sides, the options are a thin flan at that point or slightly pinched. I would go for the latter given a few transverse marks to both sides.
