tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6114 Posts	Posted 07/18/2019 10:44 am I've seen this before and always figured that they were trying to take out one of those horizontal clash marks that can hit the 1 right about there, although seemingly doing so a little too enthusiastically.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/18/2019 1:27 pm Part of the clash area is the first digit. So when polishing the dies to remove the clash marks, it get thinned down a bit. Report this Post to the Staff
