MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 11/03/2022 6:36 pm This coin has some very striking lines going through the obverse and less on the reverse. Thoughts on what is going on with it? Thanks! Edited by MrBreeze 11/03/2022 6:40 pm Report this Post to the Staff

MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 11/03/2022 7:27 pm I am now thinking draw bar lines. Trying to research the coining process now to understand the draw bar. Report this Post to the Staff

MrBreeze Valued Member United States 357 Posts	Posted 11/03/2022 7:41 pm Copied from the PCGS "lingo" page. Roller marks Term to describe the mostly parallel incuse lines seen on some coins after striking. These were originally thought to be lines resulting from debris "scoring" the metal strips before the blanks were cut. However, new research has pointed to the final step of strip preparation, the draw bar. To reduce the strips to proper thickness, the final step was to pass them through the draw bar. It certainly seems logical that debris in the draw bar may cause these lines, if so, then draw-bar marks or lines would be a more appropriate term. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/04/2022 12:22 pm Quote: "draw bar" Hadn't heard that term for many years. Being a farm boy, that was what we called on the tractor, to where a wagon would connect to pull the wagon with the tractor. I haven't heard of that for 60 years. Report this Post to the Staff
RW1010 Pillar of the Community United States 1207 Posts	Posted 11/04/2022 6:19 pm Your coin has what I'm going to call annealing lines. This is not a draw bar or rolling lines issue in my humble opinion. All of these coins combined are proof of an annealing error and yours displays that same anomaly Report this Post to the Staff
RW1010 Pillar of the Community United States 1207 Posts	Posted 11/04/2022 6:30 pm I hope these help to understand what's going on with your coin and mines. It looks like when the planchets are overheated the strike is more detailed and higher grade. Just me? Report this Post to the Staff

RW1010 Pillar of the Community United States 1207 Posts	Posted 11/04/2022 7:09 pm Hold on to those errors. Everything is not recognizable to everyone Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8774 Posts	Posted 11/04/2022 8:19 pm Ahhhh, thanks, RW. I thought I remembered someone posting the same type of anomaly but could not find it. I looked through your different posts and never saw a solid answer. Maybe Mike Diamond could offer up something on this? -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff
