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.

Edited to add:
Anyone else aware of this?

Never knew that before.

improper bonding of the copper to the coin common issue with many older pennies

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