ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 19150 Posts	Posted 05/06/2023 08:03 am I'm thinking damage from a lateral circulation hit--possibly from an old-school rotary (mechanical) vending machine (perhaps...). I suspect the damage occurred long in the past, and subsequent circulation continued to 'smooth' the impacted devices. Report this Post to the Staff
