Could someone please Explain this? Appreciate it much. I see it quite often. They are all alike also.
Its raised, Its almost shaped as a leaf. But I'm sure it has nothing to do with it. Its always in that same location.
not my picture below, I'm not that skilled to do this And the below is a 1993S so it's not the same year or die alignment, or even a clash, it's just showing what should be in that area if the dies hit each other. It's remnants of a die clash from washington's eye, specifically the bridge of his nose. At least that's what it looks like to me.
here's another image of a different one, same year 1995-P from another forum. it's less pronounced, but still there. a better overlay is here: http://www.maddieclashes.com/twentyfive-cent-overlays/
It is definitely an eye clash. This area is the lowest of relief on the obverse, and the first to come into contact when the dies clash.
