This type of die wear is especially noted on the harder metals like nickel. Few copper cents show such die wear. Usually the mint removes them before they get to this point. Worn dies for Lincoln cents will show flow lines, but few with raised dots along the flow lines.</p><p>Gary in Washington[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
