LuckyDIme Valued Member United States 141 Posts	Posted 03/13/2010 6:32 pm The line is hard to see, but is anyone aware of anything like this? The line runs from the rim (between T/R in Trust all the way to the rim behind Lincoln's shoulder. Could it be a scratch (its elevated) or a die break? Appreciate any comments Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/13/2010 6:37 pm I think it's too straight to be a die break/crack.Could be a scratch,a deep scratch would leave a ridge above the surface on both sides of the scratch. Let's wait for the pros to answer. John1 Report this Post to the Staff

errorfinder Valued Member United States 380 Posts	Posted 03/14/2010 8:34 pm I'm not a pro and it is to hard for me to see any -raised- area,but after going to photo bucket.i saw ;just below the 'T' what may-be a raised area: from pushed metal (rolled/curled over)from being scratched/gouged into post mint damage,like john said.also i'll add that i'am leaning towards PMD 'cause if it were a die crack or break it would not be perfectly straight,just like john said.i'll just add that it would be more visible, I think. ie. more -raised- if were from a die scratch/or die gouge .just IMHO. in my humble opinion Happy Hunting Report this Post to the Staff
