Quote from Mike Diamonds Coin World article. See link that follows. Note image links seem broken. Quote: I can only surmise that this is a recurring die subsidence or soft die error (the two error types are closely related and can converge in appearance). While die deformation errors of this sort are usually restricted to a single die, they will sometimes affect multiple dies when there is a fundamental flaw in the die steel or when there is a repeated misstep in die preparation (annealing, tempering, quenching). https://www.coinworld.com/news/us-c...or.all.html# Coop shows several examples in the following topic. http://goccf.com/t/285386&SearchTer...mike,diamond Thanks, Doug.
