Going through estate coins found this 1922 Peace Dollar. Has what looks like an x on front. Any help? It is difficult to see but the mark is raised and consistent with the other minting markings. Phone pics 031.jpgPhone pics 034.jpgPhone pics 036.jpg

Perhaps someone marked their coins to keep track of them around family thieves or at a poker game.

Maybe a Clash mark?
Marks on the die caused during minting by dies striking each other without a planchet between them. Each die impresses reversed portions of its design on the other.

Well, if it was carved into the coin I wouldn't have wasted the groups time. I have examined it closely and it is an elevated mark consistent with the minting process. But thanks for looking.
