The left eye, then right eye. Heck, the mouth even, guess Iv just never seen damage like this. Is it environmental damage on this coin?   |

The eyes seem to have been enhanced post-mint for some unknown reason .

The forehead also looks like it took a hit. Not a keeper if the coin is damaged.

It looks to be intentional post mint damage. Spend it.

Have you ever seen a statue that the eyes follow you? How it that done? The eyes are incuse instead of raised. So post for the center of the eye is raised. That way where ever you are in the room, it appears that the statues eyes are following you.

I hated staying over there.  |
