Dearborn Moderator United States 98403 Posts	Posted 06/11/2022 10:54 am this is damage - not necessarily a scratch but rather the coin took a hit by some kind of sharp serrated tool or knife.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/12/2022 2:50 pm Why is this not a die error? These devices are deep into the die. So there is less contact that could affect that area. On the highest points on the design on a coin, they are the first to be affected. 99% of the incuse marks on coins are damage to the coin, not a die issue. Question: Are cart marks and door dings you get into your cars doors, a factory error. Of did it happen outside of the factory? Same with coins, they are likely to be affected post strike.
