Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 02/04/2017 10:59 pm Planchet or plating flaw? Two streaks above the 2 in date too. Not a die clash because the placement is wrong. Report this Post to the Staff

Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 02/05/2017 11:24 am Good catch on the other line, guys. I missed that one. Agreeing now with John and cwb. Can you post a full obverse picture? There should be more lines on Lincoln's left. Report this Post to the Staff
