Spence Moderator United States 34430 Posts	Posted 07/07/2019 07:58 am @c10, sorry but this looks like a well-placed hit to me rather than a mint error.

Spence Moderator United States 34430 Posts	Posted 07/07/2019 08:31 am Yes I agree with your assessment, but the most simple explanation is that the bottom of the nine has a small dent on it and the horizontal stroke of the seven has been flattened slightly as well.
