IS THERE A TERM FOR A COIN WITH LETTERS THAT SEEM TO BE STRECHED OUT (FAIDING) TO THE RIM?

    I think they're just refered to as weakly struck. I've got a few 1974 mint sets that have that kind of lettering.
    If you haven't noticed, I'm single and miserable and I've got four albums of bitching about it that I would offer as proof.

    Heavily worn dies produce LDS (Late Die State) coins.

    Also, coins minted without or outside of a collar.
