ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19184 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 8:56 pm I'm seeing roller lines. Not uncommon with memorial cents in the late '70s through early '80s. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34424 Posts	Posted 12/30/2022 9:10 pm From the CCF glossary: Quote: 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 "If you climb a good tree, you get a push." -----Ghanaian proverb "The danger we all now face is distinguishing between what is authentic and what is performed." -----King Adz Report this Post to the Staff
