Coinfanatic2 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 08/17/2017 5:32 pm Ok, thank you. Would a die gouge create an impression or indentation on the surface of the object or leave a raised line or area such as what is alongside the number 4? Thank you. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfanatic2 New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 08/17/2017 5:36 pm It does seem to be a die gouge. Should have done my homework before asking the question. However, thank you for your reply. Still learning as I go. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/18/2017 10:25 am Note the design is not exact with the corresponding devices. So it is not a hub issue (doubled die). If it were a doubled die then other devices in that area would also be affected, which they are not. So it is an issue with the die as mentioned a die gouge, die damage or something else. But it is not Die Deterioration. Because if flows behind the 4 in one area, it tells me it is on the field of the die that is affected. Report this Post to the Staff
