    Is it a smooth back or a dimpled back?

    There definitely was a discussion of similar marks found on other badges. I don't remember there being a conclusive answer to what it all meant...

    I think with some diligent searching (use the Google site: search trick) you'll find it.

    Dimple backs are definitely later After 69 I believe. Dash over P is new to me but it is not on an early blank

    I am thinking that as well. Correct me if Im wrong but weren't these stamped not casted? If they are stamped a die failure can cause this for sure. It happens all the time on coins and makes them more valuable
