I've come to the conclusion that I have no confidence in putting a label on this quarter - so I'm asking for the input of others in hopes of settling the debate. Simple broken collar broadstrike or is there more to it? Thanks to all in advance.
Nope. Damage. It is a dryer coin, or something of that ilk. That's post-mint damage (PMD). At least it's silver.
Though I suspect it's a dryer coin, I suppose it is also possible that it's a coin upon which someone began the process of making into a ring.
