Worn out dies? See the thread on the 1993-P quarter here, it looks about the same.

Anyone want to know what the Franklin bell lines are all about? Ask and you will receive. I prepared and images for this, thinking that was the question on this thread. I was ready to post it and that wasn't the question. "Now I'm all dressed up with no place to go." (An old saying when I was young, you know, right after the stone age. Back when a rock band was few few guys hitting rocks together?)

The wing tips look to be maybe Die Deterioration or mechanical? Just that the left (foot) lol if that's what it's could on a bird. Some parts look (different)? I saw on that Franklin Variety site. 1st pic is what I'm wondering about. 2nd pic is what Franklin site said.
