rachums107 Pillar of the Community United States 3345 Posts	Posted 03/30/2011 10:25 pm I was nickel searching today and 9 of my rolls were all 2010! Oh well. But I noticed a circular scratch on many of them, sometimes there were multiple concentric circles, usually on the back. How do these come to be? Are they just PMD or mint errors?

eddiespin Pillar of the Community United States 1547 Posts	Posted 03/30/2011 10:37 pm Rachums107, Americanamafia is right, they're caused by the rolling machines, if I read your description correctly. Anyway, when we get new rolls, we just tuck them away, what the heck? Report this Post to the Staff

liveandievarieties Pillar of the Community United States 601 Posts	Posted 03/30/2011 10:39 pm I agree with coppercoins- impossible to be sure. But from how you describe what you did, it sounds like Lathe Lines are more likely than scratches from the finger that tucks in the end of the bankroll. In lieu of a photo, did you find the same examples in the inside of the roll, or just at the end? Report this Post to the Staff
