[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 2141025, member: 27832"]I got three Kisatchie quarters in change earlier in the week. I noticed that one of them had already been scuffed up, and was surprised to see that so soon after they were released. But then I looked more closely, and realized that the damage was apparently [I]on the die[/I] -- it doesn't extend onto the devices, and it's clearly in relief. Here's the entire reverse: [ATTACH=full]409552[/ATTACH] Here's a close-up behind the turkey (note that there's also some field disturbance in front of it): [ATTACH=full]409553[/ATTACH] Light is from the top, so you can see that the blobbiness is standing out from the field, not dug into it. So, what the heck? Has anybody else seen this? Are there enough of these floating around to deserve attention as a variety?[/QUOTE]
