Note the gray area on the top of the cornice line? It was also a crack that was raised on that area, but because of circulation, the plating was worn off that area. Now we see the zinc under that plating in that area.

Thanks! you'd laugh at the setup I use for these coins lol. I use the magnifying lens out of a laser pointer, taped to the camera on my laptop... Then I tape my cell phone to my laptop and turn the flashlight on. I also have white paper taped over the flashlight on my phone to cut down the glare. :P
