    This is the term, from our Glossary, used when we see patterns on our coins -

    Pareidolia: The phenomenon where people see patterns or objects in otherwise random data. People often “see” extra design elements that aren’t really there in a coin’s damaged areas, plating blisters, stains, etc.

    I think it is safe to say that all of us have done this before... I still do
