<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1663257, member: 112&quot;]That&#039;s what is called finning. On this coin it&#039;s minimal, but it is a fairly common thing to find, and on virtually any denomination.</p><p><br /></p><p>Finning can be caused by a few things, when a coin is struck with excessive pressure, when the planchet is too thick, or when the die spacing is less than it is supposed to be. All of these result in the same thing, small amounts of metal are squeezed out from between the dies and the collar.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
