Looks like my five year old grandson engraved that 8!
How are you getting pics that detailed? Electron microscope? Lol

That’s a good one. These draped bust coins, dime and quarter, are almost as funny looking

Look up how high alcohol consumption was in the US when Draped Bust and Capped Bust coins were being minted. Might explain things.

@in2Coins ... Dates are a focal point on coins, which makes me wonder why such variations are so prolific. One would think that, much like the obverse featured design, the date would get as much attention in the die fabrication process. Seems not... Cheers, RickO
