Cointree Valued Member United States 449 Posts	Posted 05/11/2023 11:55 pm Are you sure that is not just a stain? The same thing is going on with the 6. Are those areas raised or incuse? Or just flat? If raised they could be die chips, if incuse, probably damage. If flat, I would say stain. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34396 Posts	Posted 05/12/2023 06:15 am I agree with @john that the bit at the top of the number 9 might be struck through copper foil.

Dearborn Moderator United States 94925 Posts	Posted 05/12/2023 2:27 pm Can you provide one more image? A close up of only the 9 but with the lighting coming in from a lower angle from the side? The shadows cast will help greatly. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Dearborn Moderator United States 94925 Posts	Posted 05/12/2023 9:25 pm Thanks for the extra images, This does appear to be raised, so a strike through a copper foil seems probable.
