    You're going to have to help us out a little bit here. Do you have pictures? Also, it would be a good idea to start a new thread with your inquiry.

    Likely, the die used to press the coin had some compacted metallic granules and grease in the recessed image on the die being used. If the depression was filled, it would not make the expected raised completely motto. IMO, Jim

    The die that makes the coin has a surface opposite (indented) that when they squeeze together, Since the coin has raised letters ( normally), the die for it is the opposite depressed. It is common for the thick grease and metallic particles they produce to compact in the depressed groves , so when the expected depressed area
    is level with the edges, you will see a rather flat area ( missing full letters). Very common situation as the FEDs just want to make the money, so a few ,misplaced particles or expected areas are missing. A major amount can be worth something
    to someone. Jim
