<p>[QUOTE=&quot;foundinrolls, post: 820181, member: 4350&quot;]I would be interested in Mike D&#039;s take on this but I lean toward a die that was damaged by a feeder finger or a broken part of one.&nbsp; This could also happen if a die was damaged by some other rectangular piece of metal getting between a planchet and the reverse die as the coin was being struck.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>It is not an issue with planchets themselves as the two coins are virtually identical and the marks, if they were a part of the planchets would have been obliterated by the striking of the coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Since the marks do not resemble Lincoln,&nbsp; it tends to rule out a clashed die scenario.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some form of damage to the die would be the culprit.&nbsp; There are more of these out there somewhere.&nbsp; Although, I&#039;ve not seen one, There has to be.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks,</p><p>Bill[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
