I am curious to know the cause of these rolls near the rims of many Lincoln Cents (and some other coins). I have seen this on many denominations, but much more frequently on Lincoln cents. The date of the coin pictured is irrelevant to this question, just the latest example to spark the question.

. and to the Forum. As the die deteriorates, it becomes somewhat recessed in areas. The planchet metal "rushes" to these areas at the time of the forceful strike.
