Dearborn Moderator United States 94765 Posts	Posted 09/16/2023 10:12 pm I'm seeing lots of plating bubbles, and circulation hits on the ear. Collecting since 1972.

Curveball Valued Member United States 376 Posts	Posted 09/16/2023 10:45 pm There's definitely plating bubbles @Dearborn but the closer I look I don't think it's a plating bubble. The motto is stretched out also not sure what causes this but I remember seeing 1983s and 1984 cents with the similar stretching thing on the motto. Oh and the rolls are uncirculated it can't be circulation hits Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73654 Posts	Posted 09/16/2023 11:48 pm Might be a circulation hit, if it's incuse. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 09/17/2023 09:19 am No doubled ear. Might be debris under the copper plating. The stretching is a worn die issue. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
