[QUOTE="Greg Sebring, post: 345559, member: 12186"]I was looking over some of the coins my mother saved probably 40 years ago. She and my father ran a Standard Oil Gas station for 14yrs. Every night when they would cash out at home, she would scan the days coinage that came in and she would try to fill those dark blue folding cardboard collecting jackets. Looking over some today I found an Indian Head penny that had some strange horizontal marks underneath the date. I haven't a clue what would have caused them but I'm sure someone here does. I took a couple of photos the best I could to show what I'm looking at. It doesn't look like post mint damage but what do I know about coins........:confused:. One photo is enhanced with a flash, the other isn't. Is this a flaw in the coin or die?? Greg[/QUOTE]
