Got this in change today. Thought the die gouge was interesting.

I think it's just a bubble in the plating, not a die gauge.

How can you tell the difference between a gouge and a bubble?

shape definition?

The spacing between the G and the O is a bit more than the spacing between the O and the D.

Anyone else aware of this?

Never knew that before.

Sometimes you can push on it with something and it will flatten it. Only try on a cent that will be spent.
