Note the year? Your seeing an example of an VLDS die strike on your coin. Example of die wear on coins before the single squeeze die process started. 54% of each dies life is spent making coins like this, and worse as the die ages even more, until it is retired.

I just read about Very Late Die Stage on your Home page. It's hard to imagine they let a die go for that long. Dime is a nice example. I dont know why I really like these coins.

Well what is there job? To make money. So they squeeze every coin they can out of the dies before they retire them. They are not picky. We are!

@ Dearborn I like your devise.

You remember me how I say training my sub-officers in army:

You don't know? I teach you, you can't do 'it I help you

You refuse do 'it? I force you. '
