Hi guys

Look at these pics, there appears to be a gouge on the border, but when I look through the usb microscope, it has 2 raised parts going in towards the center...Not a gouge at all.

Don't know what causes this....?

You may be right jdavis18...My one question is that it is not a gouge, but raised up above the penny surface.

Very strange though.

I agree it looks like a die gouge, but then again I'm not looking through a microscope.
