[QUOTE="JJK78, post: 672126, member: 19207"]First off thank everyone for trying to help with this! When looking at them under the scope they don't appear raised, but when you are looking at it with the bare eye they do appear to have a raised affect. I have taken some closer pictures at about 200x so maybe you can confirm this. I am no metalurgist but I assume the short version of that is I have a strange planchet error? Ask and thou shalt recieve - I have attached 4 more pics which are all at about 200x magnification. I have not had a chance to closely examine the entire coin but it there does appear to be a few areas around the rim which appear to have the same striped pattern. I dont know if you can see from these pictures but some areas of the inner rim even look to have little chip marks out of it where the lines connect, although that may just be circulation damage, like I said I'll examine it more but just wanted to get a few other pics out there for you guys to check out. here is a link to bigger pics if these turn out small again...
