<p>[QUOTE="Oldhoopster, post: 7996544, member: 84179"]None are debris filled (grease filled) errors, just weak strikes. If you look at the area on the obverse immediately opposite the drum, you'll see Washington's head. During striking, there is a lot of metal movement into that part of the die. If the striking pressure set up is a little low or the gap between the dies is slightly wider, there may not be enough metal flow to fill all the details and the drum can be weak.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
