    When I looked at this coin, my mind immediately shot to a die chip, but when I scoped it, it just looked weird. Is this a Die chip, or something weird lol. upload_2022-7-4_3-7-24.png

    Looks like a potential planchet flaw.

    A little hard to be sure, can't you zoom in any closer? :rolleyes:

    Is it a Zincoln, or copper?

    Good question as it looks like a plating blister to me.

    This is why you should always post a picture of the full coin.

    Not a plating blister, IMO. Here it is blown up. Looks like debris but whether it was struck or not is in question.

    It's a Wheatie, so definitely copper (1942 Phili)

    It could be a bacteria, but only Thiomargarita magnifica is large enough. They are not metallic however. Jim

    This could be a variant. There are very many variants and of course they vary.

    It was just discovered and no known variants. Actually it "display unprecedented polyploidy of more than half a million copies of a very large genome, and undergo a dimorphic life cycle with asymmetric segregation of chromosomes into daughter cells. These features, along with compartmentalization of genomic material and ribosomes in translationally active organelles bound by bioenergetic membranes, indicate gain of complexity in the Thiomargarita lineage and challenge traditional concepts of bacterial cells." :) Jim
