Sections of numbers in the score disappearing in Missile Command

Is this normal behavior for Missile Command? The missing sections of the numbers always reappear whenever the screen refreshes (like when you complete a screen and move to the next one). The same thing happens in MAME too, but not as often as it happens on my machine. One or two small sections of the numbers in the score and/or high score display go missing on my machine some time during play on most screens. In MAME you have to play for a while to see it happen even once.
 
Yeah - it's normal. If an explosion occurs near the top of the screen it can (and will) take out sections of the player and high scores. You also see it happen occasionaly with the text that appears on screen as the game is playing in attract mode. Nothing to worry about.
