flanders8008 Valued Member Canada 215 Posts	Posted 04/29/2021 4:22 pm I have done some research to see if this variation exists but so far am unable to find any mention. The photos aren't the best but above the round part of the 6 you can see in one coin there are marks, and in one there are no marks. I don't think it's PMD as both coins are in AU condition and there doesn't appear to be any damage. Anybody care to chime in? Report this Post to the Staff

If you look at the second photo, the 6 is thinner/closer to the fields without the marks present.
