Wade Pillar of the Community Canada 2781 Posts	Posted 02/21/2012 8:04 pm there is a thread here somewhere with very similiar 'marks' on plated coins. i believe the final analysis was that is was a plating issue and didn't add any real value to the coin as a "mint error" Report this Post to the Staff
darryldarryl Pillar of the Community Canada 2427 Posts	Posted 02/21/2012 8:08 pm I believe it is a result of the coin not being cleaned properly. The canadian 10 cent Volunteer coin is famous for this. Edited by darryldarryl 02/21/2012 8:09 pm Report this Post to the Staff
