livingwater Pillar of the Community United States 1808 Posts	Posted 10/02/2024 8:26 pm If they are recessed, indents, below the flat of the coin, they are just scratches, post mint damage PMD, happened after it left the mint. If they are raised, above the field of the coin, then they may be die cracks, which happened when it was struck. They look like scratches to me but hard to say for sure without more pics at different angles. Edited by livingwater 10/02/2024 8:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff

If the question mark was elevated, then the light would be refracted against it. I hope you will be able to understand what he was talking about and what he showed in the photo. Legend: Yellow color indicates light, red is shadow, green is the depression between light and shadow. Report this Post to the Staff
