Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74662 Posts	Posted 04/09/2018 10:54 pm I know what these lines are. These are called Die Scrapes. It happens when the Feeder Fingers accidently scrapes against the anvil die. It's a form of Die Damage. Here is a link to error-ref.com explaining what Die Scrapes are and what causes them. http://www.error-ref.com/die-scrapes/ Errers and Varietys.

Fuzzy317 Moderator United States 14463 Posts	Posted 04/09/2018 10:54 pm Looks to me the die had scratches on the flat field, and that created raised lines on the fields of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/10/2018 4:35 pm So I guess a good question now would be: Why do the dies get feeder finger damage when hundreds of thousands coins don't show this issue? Edited by coop 04/10/2018 4:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff
