45.4 grains is close enough to the standard 48 grains to demonstrate that the coin is of normal weight and thickness. So hypothesis no. 1 is confirmed (struck against a split planchet).

So is this correct---this coin moved into the die with another 1/2 coin still in it? then was struck..so would this be a die cap? or brockage?

Never ran across one..

The correct terminology would be an "in-collar uniface strike against a split planchet".

Very interesting. Not something I would have guessed as I had never heard of it - LOL. Always something new to learn with error coins.

BTW nice find!

They're not particularly rare. They are much more common than conventional in-collar uniface strikes (two normal planchets struck within the same collar).

It does have a finned rim as well. This is a side-effect of the increased effective striking pressure generated by the abnormally great aggregate thickness of the two planchets.
