    The "O" in one and the "AM" of America is a common weak spots for a LWC, due to being opposite Abe's head and shoulders. Same spots on a LMC.
    I would check the weight. The weakness on the front could be from Debris filled die
    or a thin planchet.

    Either it’s damaged or it was struck with a filled die. Either way there’s no real premium for it.
