[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1925727, member: 112"]On the contrary, it is perfectly logical to me that the marks all be in the roughly the same place and rough shape. It's a high point on the coin, if there was rub, where else would you expect it to rub ? And it wouldn't take much at all to cause such a mark, just laying the coin down of a flat surface and then moving it when you tried to pick it up could do it. Of course it's also possible it is from nothing more than a wear mark in the die. But if that were the case the marks would be progressive, and very, very close to the same.
