Comment
The BE 2058 coin is pictured at the top. The eight-ray sun at the top right of the Obverse hits and distorts the line above it. The non-magnetic BE 2060 coin (pictured below) is similar to KM# 1151.1: The sun has eight small rays between the eight major rays and doesn't contact the line above it.
