<p>[QUOTE=&quot;HandsomeToad, post: 353091, member: 12965&quot;]<span style="color: black">I called it Roller Marks only because I don&#039;t know what else to call it. I know it is somewhat common (seen it on several Buffalos over the years) and the only thing I&#039;ve found to define it is Roller Marks. I&#039;ve been hoping someone here would be able to explain what this is called and what causes it, but no luck so far. </span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="color: black">What I do know is it is pre-mint condition because the streaks are consistent, even on the edge of raised surfaces (bust/lettering/etc). So it has to be in the milling process of the planchet and probably identical/similar to what causes Roller Marks. That’s why I posted the definition of Roller Marks, because they have (at some time) changed their hypothesis as to what causes roller marks and it somewhat fits to what is occurring with my nickel, although roller marks on silver coins don’t look anything like the marks on my nickel.</span></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ribbit&nbsp; :smile[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
