Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 04/17/2015 7:51 pm I'm not sure but it appears that the area where the rest of the I should be is unaffected, so maybe it's a grease-filled die. Report this Post to the Staff

Try to lower the lighting or to put a diffuser between the lighting and the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 04/18/2015 9:32 pm That's why I posted it. What should I look for? Report this Post to the Staff
CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 04/20/2015 11:01 pm Ok, it cannot be a die crack, as it is not raised. It must be a scratch on the coin indeed. The "I" still bothers me, It stops so abruptly on the top. Is that typical from grease? Report this Post to the Staff
