Maybe a combination of lines that were on the planchet before striking like feeder damage (making the lines) and plating issues causing the ghost images.

Ed, & Mike, that would be my guess, as well.

I don't know about the "ghost" image, but the faint parallel lines are accidental die scrapes, probably from a feeder finger.

THANKS ALL

I just thought the marks were strange to the left, then my imagination went wild and saw the kid and ghost face

Maybe our cents are trying to tell us something Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes Shocked

Is that "Linus" from the peanut cartoon?
I once found an unhappy Abe on one?
