<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikediamond, post: 87821, member: 1859&quot;]As Conder101 says, these are concentric lathe marks.&nbsp; A working hub was not polished (or was inadequately polished) after the cone-shaped face was machined.&nbsp; It was hubbed like this and the concentric lines were preserved.&nbsp; Concentric lathe marks are best known from the die pair that produced this 1996-D cent.&nbsp; However, I&#039;ve seen a clear case in a 1999 or 2000 nickel.&nbsp; I&#039;d have to dig it out to firm up the date.</p><p><br /></p><p>Concentric lathe marks are quite rare, but there&#039;s little demand for this sort of error.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
