Scissel Pillar of the Community Canada 693 Posts	Posted 06/28/2015 09:51 am If it was a die scratch, why would it affect both the fields AND the devices? I'm leaning toward some sort of planchet defect / plating bubble explanation for this error. Report this Post to the Staff
Paulsz Pillar of the Community Canada 2187 Posts	Posted 06/28/2015 12:40 pm I goes from Rim to bead, but goes over the design. However, it looks too good to be a scratch ( I might sounds crazy here, as I have little knowledge on errors). But it's too straight to be done by hand and knife, but not straight enough to have been done with hand, knife and ruler. Report this Post to the Staff
Altaira Pillar of the Community Canada 2517 Posts	Posted 06/29/2015 12:34 am Might it be the same damage done by old coin rolling machines? It's a long straight scratch across the nickel. Report this Post to the Staff
