The edge is "pinched" in three places. Looking at the obverse the pinches occur at roughly 4, 7, and 11 o'clock. Is this a Mint error? Report this Post to the Staff

matttheriley Pillar of the Community United States 1512 Posts	Posted 11/30/2014 7:59 pm Would that be considered a mint error? Would there be any premium added because of it? Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 12/01/2014 12:37 pm Not collar cracks, not a mint error. The lines are perfectly normal on proofs since the edge lettering is applied via a three piece collar, the lines represent the division between the collar segments. Report this Post to the Staff
