$49. Thoughts? There seem to be some impression's on Liberty's neck which are strikingly prominent. Any thoughts on what those are? Thanks!

AU-55+ Details Cleaned. The impressions are a die clash.

seems more likely that there was something between the die and the planchet when the coin was struck

AU details. Why would there be a die clash on the devices? Hard to tell if it's incuse or raised on the neck, but it also looks like there are some depressions on the reverse. Defective planchet?

I'll wait for new photos on this one. Could be an MS coin.

Looks natural to me, I would have guessed MS-64

This coin looks mint state to me, but the amazing thing is that it looks like it was struck through all over the obverse and reverse.

Interesting coin. I'd say MS-62 with the new pics. I suppose struck through is a possibility, but it doesn't seem to affect the devices on the reverse, so I still think they might be planchet defects. But just a guess.

Looks much better in these pics. Defective planchet sounds plausible. Never seen anything like it.
