Reivers_Jewels Valued Member United States 57 Posts	Posted 06/28/2024 6:15 pm As has already been mentioned, the pulling of the letters and stars toward the rim is due to Die Deterioration. This was extremely common for capped bust halves, where dies were frequently pushed to their limits. Later die states often show this streaking effect. Report this Post to the Staff
