jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 01/08/2020 2:47 pm I do not collect Canadian coins with any regularity but recently acquired a nice collection of Canadian Large Cents and noticed something very odd about the 1914. It has 2 raised lines across the center of the coin, almost as if it were struck from a cancelled die. Has anyone seen this before? Does anyone have any knowledge of what this is? The lines definitely appear to be part of the original strike. Report this Post to the Staff

jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 01/08/2020 7:12 pm I will try and get a clearer picture, only camera I have is in my old IPhone . Could be PMD but hard to figure out how they would be raised lines if that is the case. Looks like the coin was struck with a severely scratched die. Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5585 Posts	Posted 01/08/2020 8:07 pm I don't think that it's PMB because of the A in Canada. PMD would have taken out the letter, but it's all there in the field. The N's in Cent and One are too close to the letters, so you can't see it. A better photo will help, but it looks like all the "scratch" is in the field. Report this Post to the Staff
