    Die wearing, die abrasion, struck through grease?

    Die wearing, die abrasion, struck through grease? I just wanted to understand how this could happen on so much of the coin. THX Ed

    Judging from the amount of flow lines, I would give a definite yes to die wear.

      It looks like die wear coupled with some mild to strong machine doubling.

        I don't understand why you think die wear would only affect part of the die. Or why die abrasion or a struck-through-grease wouldn't affect all of the die. Just as easily could as wouldn't.

          how "this" what could happen? I don't see anything but a normal wheat cent. PLEASE explain in DETAIL when you post questions. You will get a correct answer much more quickly that way.

            Amazing. A correct answer was given without knowing ever know the question.
