[QUOTE="Fred Weinberg, post: 2702926, member: 86437"]Although I don't need to add my view - I will. It's 'chatter' from something coming in contact with the coin. There are no letters or designs, or anything at all that could have occurred at the Mint. As mentioned earlier, it's a classic case of pareidolia. Or, as I say when folks show me similar coins at a coin show, "What you see is an illusion - that's why people think they see a picture of the Virgin Mary on a piece of toast - because they want to". Not trying to be difficult or rude - but wishing it or hoping it doesn't 'make it'. It's a good start - you noticed something different on your coin, and you've learned that it's not what you might have thought it would be. You'll know more the next time you find a 'different' coin in change.[/QUOTE]
