USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 01/23/2019 10:25 pm Found in the same box. Looks like Struck Through Grease on both sides of each coin. Light, focus and angle are not the best. Hope you can see it. Edited by USSID18 01/24/2019 7:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff

GrapeCollects Pillar of the Community United States 8938 Posts	Posted 01/23/2019 10:26 pm I think it had something to do with die life as well. You'll find a lot of late 80's and early 90's have the same issue. Report this Post to the Staff

I would need a detailed picture with graphic arrows to point out exactly where they are and where to look. The coins are a mess! Would they be die markers, scratches, gouges or just circulation hits?

Halo1st Pillar of the Community United States 2775 Posts	Posted 01/24/2019 10:50 am Seems like a grease issue, but I'd double check the weight. Thanks, Doug. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 01/24/2019 2:43 pm Check the locations on the mint marks. If they are the same, these may have been struck with the same die pair. The grease, oil and grit could be moving around strike to strike. But I'm thinking they are probably very close relatives. Report this Post to the Staff
USSID18 Pillar of the Community 5464 Posts	Posted 01/24/2019 7:53 pm The weight looks about right, 11.1g on both coins. The mint marks look like they are about in the same location. Edited by USSID18 01/24/2019 7:55 pm Report this Post to the Staff
