Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 78339 Posts	Posted Today 3H 8M ago Those are called Radial Flow Lines. It's from Die Deterioration. The die was starting to wear out. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
irek renrut Valued Member United States 55 Posts	Posted Today 2H 59M ago Thanks for the quick response! I had looked at error ref radial flow lines, but what I see on my coin does not match their image. It seems to be something else. https://www.error-ref.com/radial-flow-lines/ Could it be something else? Report this Post to the Staff
