Hello everyone,
Can anyone tell me how these marks are made? I have seen them on different coins (mostly quarters and sometimes on dimes), always on the obverse and usually on the bust in different areas. And its always 3 of them.
Thanks!
What are these 3 Marks?

Re: What are these 3 Marks?
This has nothing to do with a clash.
What you're seeing is a contact mark from the edge of a reeded coin.
