oddguy Pillar of the Community United States 4135 Posts	Posted 02/07/2023 10:17 am Trust the experts here, it is a scratch. Sorry. I am not an expert but I see it as a scratch as well. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/07/2023 10:30 am Damage is damage. A die issue would be raised, and not incuse if it were a die crack. An attempt to create a die error. (Not saying it was your creation, but the mind set to try to make something that looks like a mint error) Report this Post to the Staff

Cointree Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 02/07/2023 5:12 pm Too bad it's just a scratch. I was going to name it "Weeping Tom". Report this Post to the Staff
nick10 Pillar of the Community United States 3207 Posts	Posted 02/07/2023 5:24 pm if in a sandbox, you smooth the sand until it is perfectly level, then run a stick through the sand, you'll get a long trough in the sand, plus sand mounded up parallel on both sides of the trough, that looks like what this nickel has under both of Tom's eyes, actually Report this Post to the Staff
