Are these Trails on this 2015P?

Trails or some kind of defective planchet? Trails look so different to me on new shiny coins, they seem to be thicker or maybe just looks that way because they are so shiny. Thank you for stressing your eyes out on this one!

Having problems uploading photos, I think I need to get rid of some assets. I have files in my list from very long ago. I think it will let me upload two photos.

Those are interesting... I do not think they are trails... Appear to be plating issues but I am not sure... Hopefully BJ chimes in!!!

I'm with Jim....don't quite look like trails...welcome back Viv !

[VAB2013]

Thank you both! The other trails I found were not like this either so I'm thinking strategically placed plating issue to confuse my brain. Can't wait to get a better camera! Bet you guys will be happier too

I would say die striations.

I have seen this anomaly type on other dates as well and while I do not think they are trails, they are an interesting affect.

I'm with you Jim, I have always wanted to know how things work since I was a kid and asked a lot of questions. That is why you guys deserve a gold medal for putting up with me all these years
