<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numismat, post: 2322805, member: 15019&quot;]The first coin: if you follow the &quot;gouge&quot; line it traces out part of the design on the host coin. You can see similar on the reverse, but not as deep. This is to be expected as such leftovers are more prominent on the higher profile design areas than on the lower ones.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the second coin: it doesn&#039;t make sense for this to be post mint damage if it goes right up to the edge of the profile features and does not cross them. There is no question in my mind looking at this coin that it is anything other than something on the die pre-strike.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
