Are the below lines (mostly on the left side) of W a die marker or polish lines? Only have 1 coin so I could not validate if another have the same signature. BTW, I could not see these lines even with a 15x mag loupe.

    Here’s mine. Don’t know but you can compare. I am not seeing anything unusual

    I have nothing that will magnify my coin(s) that much, but if the lines are raised, I would say it is errant die gouge, probably done while cleaning up the die at some point and not noticed. Cheers, RickO

    Thanks for the photo. But yes, very difficult to see based on your photos. 😅

    Yes, the lines are raised. I’ve read a few months back that gold coins have some sort of markers reason why I was curious. Thanks!
