John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 07/04/2011 06:54 am with coop,especially with the line above. With the two lines so close together it's more likely a LAM. IMHO, John1 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/04/2011 4:27 pm The rolling of the metals didn't flow together, but were pressed together. Thus they were not bonding tightly together. Sometimes you see this on obverse & Reverse. Report this Post to the Staff
