[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 4895697, member: 15309"]I viewed this thread before looking at the same thread on NGC. I don't see anything in the OP of this thread that states it is a Morgan Dollar like I do over on the NGC forum. But now that I know, I will post what I wrote over there. The marks on the chin (blue circle by Jason) look to be indentations that appear to be evenly spaced in a pattern with a flat top edge and a rounded at the bottom of each mark. I don't know what caused it, but it seems to be either the coin was stamped with something or grabbed and moved by something that had protruding bumps like on a conveyer belt. Perhaps some sort of old time coin counting machine used in banks or casinos for slot machines. The marks in the field below the chin (green circle by Jason) are much finer and not in any pattern and don't look like bag marks. Looks like someone shot it with a really tiny shotgun.
