Dearborn Moderator United States 99460 Posts	Posted 01/13/2024 1:57 pm Reed Marks - these coin are fairly heavy and when they are minted they drop into a collection bin where other halves can drop on top of ones already minted and get hit the the reeded edge, thus making these marks. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
