Thanks ya'll. CC, they've been around for many years, but due to the single squeeze hubbing process there are more and stronger ones.

Thanks CM, Hoping I will find some on my LC's that I am searching through this evening. I think I just assumed any of the lines on there were just from the plating problems. I am going to look through the website and see what they look like for the 1990's so I can keep an eye out.

CC and Rohn308, they are extensions of high points on the design. They were created on the die when it moved horizontally against the hub that was making it. You can differentiate them from linear bubbles as they start strong at the device, and TraiiiiL out weaker the farther they go. On most coins, they all go in one direction (the off-set). And nickel clashes, Sudz, and thanks. Thanks, John1, you should be able to, you're talking to a man that it took 50 plus years to find a Bar Nickel. The nickels on ebay are all mine, BJ told me he knew of one that sold for 75, and I told him I would try to bump up the price (corner the market, so to speak). I think when the first one sells, the rest will follow. Thanks Moxking. Cool BJ, I certainly will. Cool coop, thanks, some areas are not as strong as the others, but there's a ton of them. Thanks Buddy. I was once accused of receiving them direct from the Mint. I disavow any knowledge of that.lol |

You're very welcome Rohn308. That's how it works here, we all help each other. We learn and pass it on, and have fun and acquire nice coins while we're at it.

I was going through the listings on the traildies website, WOW, I had no idea there were so many. I looked for them on my searches this weekend and no luck. I don't have much time on the weekends anyways since my 2 boys keep me pretty busy. Thanks for the great info on how they occur, this way I don't look for a trail die in the middle of the field :) (I wouldn't put it past me).
