I though I was seeing double
I agree with Dave, the rivet looks fine to me. If you look at the picture closely, that's not a round rivet.
The '70 vert Vin in question. Take a look at the hexagonal corners on the rivet, the one on the right lower side is pretty clear.

All the rivets are the same. It doesn't have that nice scalloped shape like some of the later rosette rivets, but it looks right to me. As for covering up the sequence number, he's covering the sequence number and the last few of the VIN. Probably just doesn't want the VIN number running around on the internet, wouldn't be the first time someone used a VIN from the 'net to make up some fake tags.
