<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mcgrover, post: 144314, member: 5929&quot;]Yeah, the &quot;thing&quot; by the date is a real problem. There doesn&#039;t seem to be a good explanation for this coin being created at the mint, bur the same can be said for outside the mint. Certainly there was some squeezing by something - tool, press - on the obv, but the squeezings&nbsp; don&#039;t leave the same fingerprint, and whatever might have squeezed it didn&#039;t flatten the &quot;thing&quot; by the date.&nbsp; I think there&#039;s some sort of &#039;clash&#039; going on. But from what is the mystery. And the rev. doesn&#039;t line up with the obv. striking, but seems to be some lamination problem, esp. on the eaves of the Memorial. Anybody got a better idea how this could have been created?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
