FsdWarp10 Pillar of the Community United States 786 Posts	Posted 08/11/2025 04:10 am Not sure what the line is off the end of the 9's tail. Maybe a plate bubble? It is raised to the same degree as the 9. Just thought I would share it as it is odd. Thanks for looking. Edited by FsdWarp10 08/11/2025 04:22 am Report this Post to the Staff

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 16056 Posts	Posted 08/11/2025 06:11 am The coin is filled with plating bubbles so IMO you have indeed correctly answered your own question. Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff
