Jayman931 Pillar of the Community United States 2651 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 5:52 pm I thought I had seen a similar coin a few months back on here. I do not remember the cause or what it was. Any idea? The areas in question are raised and very hard to photograph as they are very mirrored/proof like. Edited by Jayman931 08/14/2013 5:54 pm Report this Post to the Staff

biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 6:35 pm Die gouges, most likely caused by a feeder finger. Report this Post to the Staff
coinaki Valued Member United States 207 Posts	Posted 08/14/2013 8:46 pm Yup, die scrapes. Although I am not sure these were caused by feeder finger, as those normally run NW to SE. Report this Post to the Staff

But I figured Jayman is experienced enough to would have noticed it. Edited by coinaki 08/14/2013 9:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Jayman931 Pillar of the Community United States 2651 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 1:08 pm I guess it could be rotated 360 Degrees Why do you ask? Did you find one that was rotated and gouged? There is also damage in the 1st bay....11th bay...and below the memorial under bah 7-8 (hard to see in pics) Edited by Jayman931 08/15/2013 1:11 pm Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/15/2013 2:46 pm Normally feeder finger die scrapes are in the SE/NW direction. These die scrapes are going the opposite direction. It is behind the devices on the outer part of the die. First time I've seen them in this direction on the zincolns. But they are interesting. I would keep it for now. Report this Post to the Staff
