I assure you that those places are not on the coins. The camera picks up black reflections from the lens rim and the close ups pick up stuff the naked eye doesn't see. If you look at Roosevelt back side of his head you will see the same, but the reverse of the other coin was off from the lens and didn't pick it up. I have 15 of the quarters and 29 of the dimes. You will get good ones... if you bid and win??????promise. Thanks
