Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 10/04/2018 8:42 pm @ny4e, yes very shiny. It looks like those two linear regions could be threads resting on top of the coin. Maybe use a little canned air to blow them off? Obviously don't use your breath as you will blow small droplets of spit onto that surface. If they don't blow off, then they could be scratches--the one above liberty might be a scratch. Finally, they might be a struck-through thread from the mint. The one over the date looks a bit like that might have happened.

newyorkers4ever New Member United States 44 Posts	Posted 10/04/2018 8:50 pm The thread like item that is on the coin is definitely not a hair, through a loop it doesn't seem like a scratch, The L in liberty so close to the rim, the date looked thicker. Report this Post to the Staff
newyorkers4ever New Member United States 44 Posts	Posted 10/04/2018 8:51 pm The T on liberty also looks shorter on the right side. This coin just jumped out at me. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/04/2018 9:24 pm I see that often on proof coins. I wonder it is cello struck through. Seems odd to find the cello there? Report this Post to the Staff
