Also, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you guys will tell me this happens, but is it weird that THREE of the A's on the reverse show NO sign that they ever had the "hole" in the top part? (Go ahead, say it--"." This'll be the only time you can say it and not mean something else! ) Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/23/2016 7:50 pm Looks like the mark is incuse. So it is probably coin damage from circulation. If it were a die gouge, that area would be raised and not lowered. Report this Post to the Staff
twslisa Pillar of the Community United States 790 Posts	Posted 10/23/2016 11:15 pm I'm pretty sure it is raised (cast a shadow, even). Will take another look at it tomorrow. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/23/2016 11:25 pm Note the light is coming from the bottom of the image and it lights up the back edge of the area in question. If it were raised, the light would show on the bottom of the area in question. Report this Post to the Staff
