<p>[QUOTE="HandsomeToad, post: 357529, member: 12965"]I read the definition for Improper Alloy Mix and it says it's common in the early wheat cents, which leads me to think that's what's called a Woody?? But an Improper Alloy Mix is throughout the metal and not just on the surface, like in the case of the nickels (it looks like it's surface impurities and not throughout). So while I think that definition is close, it's practically in the same boat as Roller Marks and doesn't quite nail it but I think it is a much closer definition than Roller Marks. :thumb: </p><p> </p><p>I'm going to keep reading and see what else is in that site.
