<p>[QUOTE=&quot;non_cents, post: 1780557, member: 30970&quot;]I can&#039;t really tell what&#039;s going on with the 8, but if you claim it is &quot;shadowing&quot;, I would guess that it is due do offset die deterioration doubling. This is just an affect that the die has later in its life, and is normal and to be expected. It doesn&#039;t really have to do with the strike itself, the die is just deteriorating due to how many coins it has struck.
