Clearer pics and less gunk in that area would help though. I enlarged and marked up one of your pics, for other to see. -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

In this case, you're seeing something that just isn't there. There is no S between any of the numbers on no your coin. It's like seeing bunny rabbits in the clouds. They just aren't there.
