I'm thinking the coin took a hit or there is isolated machine doubling. It does not look like an RPM. Keep up the hunt!
I agree with non_cents. It does look like damage to me. I might begin to say otherwise if the coin wasn't damaged all around as it is.
Hi, I don't think damage can do something like that anyway. There is space between P... interesting. Just add another zoom pic. Thank you Non_Cents and GreatWalrus! "Keep up the hunt!" CDNum
Thanks for the extra pics. Look at the way that the doubling is flat and shelf-like. That is indicative of machine doubling or damage. It also "takes away" from the design rather than adding to it...another sign of a non-RPM coin. Keep up the hunt!
