First 2014 5c I have found and I noticed some wear or PMD. Do they roll 5c pieces? What is your opinion please.

Great photo and well spotted
I've only seen the 2014 5c in bags not rolls
No doubt 2014 will be the last circulating 5c

Steve, is that scratching between the top of the H and the II?
(Which might indicate coin counter or roller damage).

Without any marks there it may be a strike through oil/grease.

I doubt that it's wear, looks more like a filled die, so :i_agree: with Unicorn.
Quoteit may be a strike through oil/grease
and too close to the edge to be from a coin rolling machine IMO.

It doesn't look like a scratch, but there is something there, that extends from the B in Elizabeth, right around to the U in Australia.

Here's another pic with lighting from a different angle. Still can pick up the mark on the coin, but shows damage to the AU as well.

Cool. If it does look like a scratch then I'd reckon that the field mark/line may be some oil/grease impact as well. I can't see any damage to the legend so I think it's definately not PMD.

Yay! Keeper!

EDIT: The sentence above was meant to say DOESN'T look like (as Steve had mentioned in his thread above) ...... but you probably guessed that. Damn eye .... it can't read for &%#!

Made a quick edit to my post just above. (Which should make more sense now).

Here's a $1 strikethrough oil/grease I had that shows the impact that can result to the field of the coin.

Thanks for the edit, Unicorn.
I had worked it out though.
That $1 is a beauty. :)
