Quote: Yes, interested in what that 'feature' is just west of the nose bridge. Well, ok, I will. it looks like the field is not microscopically even and is creating shadows when viewed from different angles. Here are some close=ups from different angles This picture is from one of my 1973 uncirculated coins showing same area. Edited for spelling error. Collecting since 1972.

Dearborn Moderator United States 96579 Posts	Posted 03/05/2021 9:50 pm Could that uneven spot be from the Reverse's Eagle wing right at the bend? it seems to be in the correct location to be. Coop, Could yo please do one of your multi-color overlays for me? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Rothery Pillar of the Community 2145 Posts	Posted 03/05/2021 10:38 pm If this is the area in question then to me it looks just like more of the black shadows (with a white spot of dust?) that are on the center and the right side fields of the coin (as Ty2020 stated) Another real nice proof Ike - I could see this reaching PF69DCAM Edited by Rothery 03/05/2021 10:42 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Zurie Pillar of the Community United States 5672 Posts	Posted 03/06/2021 01:53 am Having a die clash on a proof coin would be pretty unlikely. Modern proofs are so hard to photograph because of their reflectivity that I find it near impossible to grade from a photo. The artifacts from the photography tend to hide any minor imperfections. But it sure looks like a nice proof Ike! Report this Post to the Staff

It is the area of interest. It is just dust - look at the closeup I provided. and I agree with you as I stated above. Just ruling out everything that could have caused that shadow or ripple in the field. It is nothing more than a near perfect (and Magnificent) Clad proof Eisenhower coin.
