Titles are Important! * I see on the 1992 a odd dot its solid toothpick test is it a gas bubble or error? On the 1995 there are raised lines around the date.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/23/2018 10:53 am The 1991 lines above the date area are incuse. Those are from a coin scratch. The dots are where the plating has been split the the zinc is getting oxygen and now starting to rise. Spendable coin. The 1992 is showing a couple linear plating bubbles. The wave lines under the date digits and the mint mark are Die Deterioration of the die. (die wear) These show on the fields next to to the devices. It is also seen below the bust. The way I can tell what they are is cause die wear patterns are from the outside edges of devices towards the closest rim direction. They will be firm as they are part of the planchet formed from Die Deterioration. Also spendable. (unless you are saving these for examples. no premium) Report this Post to the Staff
