[QUOTE="geekpryde, post: 26064512, member: 36248"]Anyone have an ungraded 2024 Silver Flowing hair medal they can inspect the edge for me? I am seeing some edge lettering on mine, but can't tell if it's on the PCGS gasket or the coin edge. Very hard to see what the letters are. To my naked eye it looks like "404 S". I don't think it's just scratches, edges looks too clean and two of the marks are identical. Please check yours. If anyone has any ideas what this might be, I am all ears. My eyes cannot make it out in hand. :watching: I will try to get some more pics with macro lens this weekend, but the position of the marks makes it near impossible. I am thinking since my medal graded MS70, PCGS would have seen it and not graded it so highly if they are just stay marks. / Post mint damage, even if they themselves caused it. They are in very noticeable and prominent spot and no way they would miss it if they were scratches from their removal of the mint packaging. Likewise, if anyone has a PCGS graded example, I would be curious if you see such marks on the edge, as it may be on the gasket, (I'm 90% sure it's on the coin). Do you see anything other than a 100% plain edge? My guesses (assuming they are letters) are "404 2" or "404 S". Did they physically number these medals when minted? Designer initials?
