The shape of the tiny furrows looks similar to the image I posted only not as obvious.</p><p><br /></p><p>QUOTE="ksparrow, post: 4979010, member: 7638"]Insider, do you believe the coin in the OP is scratched, or more likely the result of hub retouching?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p><p>Without ever seeing one of these coins in hand, I don't know what caused it.
