<p>[QUOTE="Insider, post: 4547809, member: 24314"]Based on the other marks, this <b>may be</b> a deep scrape. There is a shallow scrape on the neck. Scrapes are generally the same depth throughout (see mark on neck). The mark in the field is multi-level. Gouges are deep but vary rarely multi-level. Still see the discoloration so this is one that must be seen in hand to ID.</p><p><br /></p><p>PS Since much of the mark is drawn out with a <i><span style="color: #b35900">discoloration</span></i> inside, it may still be a struck through sawdust used to dry the planchets.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
