Tanman2001 Pillar of the Community United States 4395 Posts	Posted 09/26/2018 8:59 pm It's 1969 and it's just damage, you can see how the metal is just pushed over. 1960 or 1967 would have the bottom of the fourth digit level to the bottom of the 6. Report this Post to the Staff

B/c its a legitimate question from someone trying to understand something they probably have not seen before. Now anyone reading this thread has seeing an example of what impact-moved metal on a coin can look like. It looked weird so the thread was posted. Quote: why the 9 is so different? The curve is way off. But thank you very much foe your time. Note the top of the 9 that had its metal displaced is also flattened somewhat. Think smeared. This flattening aids in the appearance of the curve being different along with the moved metal messing up the rest. How much squash could a Sasquatch squash if a Sasquatch would squash squash?
