Title: 2001 20 Cent Proof
Post by: MattGold on May 31, 2015, 09:34:37 PM

Hey all how's things? Just curious to know what could have caused this? The A in AUS has been struck correctly and it is all there but the right leg of the A looks like it hasn't been struck with enough pressure or along the lines of a worn die in the AUSTR part of the die. I hope that made sense lol. Thank you in advance

Think it's just a weak strike Matt, what's the hair look like close up.

Frosting has worn off of the die?

The hair looks normal to me

Can the frosting do that?
