Dino Valued Member United States 180 Posts	Posted 09/04/2019 6:15 pm So bought some mint sets a few weeks ago and was checking them out today. Found something a little different in a 1981 set; on the Denver 25C George has a little tunnel running from jawline all the way down to the top of base on his neck. The little tunnel doesn't run past his neck which makes it a little more interesting to me, and using the slightest of touch you can feel the indentation. Probably a mechanical issue coming of the press. Report this Post to the Staff

cladking Pillar of the Community United States 2276 Posts	Posted 09/04/2019 8:15 pm I've seen this quite a bit and am not sure what causes it. It's especially common on '78-D quarters IMS. Looking at a single specimen would lead one to believe it's missing metal in the planchet but they all look a lot like this one. Time don't fly, it bounds and leaps. Report this Post to the Staff
