Dearborn Moderator United States 98469 Posts	Posted 06/15/2022 10:31 pm Well those are odd looking. Never seen anything like that. Maybe the die got damaged. Collecting since 1972.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 06/16/2022 7:46 pm The two areas above IN GOD are die dents. The die was altered by being dropped on to two different dies that dented that edge of that die. Not a premium for these, unless they are a lot larger. Report this Post to the Staff
