Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 02/14/2017 10:09 pm I don't see where the small one is. Stick an arrow by it for us glasses wearing folk! I do think the large one might be a plating or bubble flaw? It seems odd to me that it'd remain in a straight line despite crossing the features of the memorial. I'll wait on the pros for this one though. Report this Post to the Staff
OldJoeClark Pillar of the Community United States 1260 Posts	Posted 02/14/2017 10:12 pm Druu, I don't have the software to put arrows and such. It may not be a die crack but in the last photo, to the right of the 'T' in 'CENT' you see what looks like the tail of the crack then to the right of that another raised section that I was calling a crack. I well may be a bubble. Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/14/2017 11:16 pm That is called a linear (Def 1. Straight 2. Long and narrow) plating bubble. Report this Post to the Staff
Druu Pillar of the Community United States 1000 Posts	Posted 02/14/2017 11:18 pm Ah, I see what you're talking about now. The planchet looks pretty streaky overall, and I think the large one running from e pluribus unum all the way down to the rim is just the largest of the defects. Report this Post to the Staff
