What is going on here? Scratches near the upper denticles and letters in STATE seem to be irregular. Weight is right and magnet test is negative but coin struck me as wrong in some way.

    See Above: Metal flow during striking has worn the dies. The surfaces look beat up and that is not due to the die.
