[QUOTE="foundinrolls, post: 463127, member: 4350"]We stopped producing circulation coins for other governments in around 1984. This coin is most likely brass plated as mentioned above. All the lines are from what is called die dressing. Essentially it's polishing the die, often to remove clash marks. The marks left on the die transfer to the coins that are struck. Thanks, Bill[/QUOTE]
