[QUOTE="kanga, post: 690092, member: 9270"]The "E" is on the other side of the coin from the indian's cheek. The cheek is the highest point on the obverse, so it takes a lot of metal to bring it up. If the striking pressure is just a bit weak, something's got to give. In this case the bottom of the "E", and if you look closely enough the left leg of the "N" looks weak at the bottom too.[/QUOTE]
