<p>[QUOTE="ziggy9, post: 864357, member: 8360"]as has been stated so many times before this is the result of the roll crimping machine. the steel finger that rolls over the end of the paper roll hits in the same area on the coin every time. on newer coins you can often see a ring on the coin in this position. Copper is a relatively soft and maleable material and therefor the metal will move out of the way of the steel finger. If you look long enough you will find this for most every date. the very fact that it happens in the same position year after year indicates that it is post mint problem.</p><p><br /></p><p>Richard[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
