<p>[QUOTE="Kasia, post: 1322696, member: 31533"]Sounds like it may be good reasoning to put some obverse design consideration as fault for this. You're right about finding lots of them, with this in the same place (states and of, primarily). Also it happens on some dimes with the reverse lettering "us" and "u" in pluribus and unum, respectively (to the left of the torch). On the dimes, that corresponds to the highest relief of Roosevelt's head from what I can see. So your reasoning that on certain years of coins for dimes the bust depth might be a problem because of what it puts to the reverse design, but I'm not sure it explains why the lower part of the bust on the lincoln cents, which is not that high, would be causing the problem on this coin, IMO.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
