Jalama Bound New Member United States 24 Posts	Posted 09/02/2024 9:23 pm Going though a handful of '64 halves and I came across this oddity on the reverse. Streaky lines on the right of the eagle and similar lines heading down on the left right past the "F" in the word "HALF". It appears to not go through the main design.Thoughts?

t360 Pillar of the Community United States 2703 Posts	Posted 09/09/2024 10:04 am Die scratches should be raised. Therefore you must have scratches on the coin, which may just be PMD. Report this Post to the Staff
t360 Pillar of the Community United States 2703 Posts	Posted 09/09/2024 10:23 am If scratches were present on the planchet before striking you should see scratches continuing across the devices and fields (connected), not just on the fields. Report this Post to the Staff
