Hello Everyone!

Got some mixed feelings on this one.
On one hand, you can see the striation marks from DDD.
On the other hand, there shouldn't be anything there on the die to deteriorate, and sorta looks like a tail ending past the striation.
Wishful thinking - or - do ya'll also see what I hope I'm seeing?

Thanks

I think it is just from polishing/abrading the die. 1971 were very common for this, more than likely to get rid of a clash. Check out the 71 from PGCS with the magnifier you can plainly see the same thing going on. Just put your cursor over the area you want to magnify.
