[QUOTE="valente151, post: 1544375, member: 27564"]Nope. The 1920 s was damaged after release from the mint. If the cut had been on the planchet (the disk of metal that a coin is struck on) before striking, you would see the edges of the cut as flat, not raised. The 1934-D appears to be normal, the streak pattern you see would be natural toning caused by the metal reacting with gases in the air. The 1957-D shows corrosion, most likely from being buried in the ground. Welcome by the way![/QUOTE]
