spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 01/09/2018 10:32 pm I see what you mean. The horizontal bars of the F look like they are at nearly 45°. I think it's a combination of die wear and plating issues that is making it appear that way.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/10/2018 10:56 am The FG is not added to the die. It is part of the design. So the issue is a distortion of the plating, die wear or something else. Not angled on the original fresh die. Report this Post to the Staff
