Anyone have a good photo? Just got word some of the coins I sent to NGC got dinged for this. Im trying to stay positive and use it as a learning experience, but I don't want to "pay more tuition".

I think that's the swipe around it? Sometimes it goes all the way around and sometimes it doesn't? I'm not by my coins, so no picture, but I'm sure I have quite a few of these.

Looking for counting wheel marks.

I have 2 BU War Nickels with half moon wheel counting marks on the reverses...ugh!

 

One is obvious, the other is minute but can be seen under magnification or once you know where it's located, a rotation under a good light reveals the mark.
