I suppose it could be a ding that just looks like the perfect size to be a horizontal stroke in the design.
I am far from a Trade Dollar expert, but the difference at the circled location would make me suspect authenticity until I could confirm there was...
I have problems understanding the terminology. To me, this is a chop: [ATTACH] and this is a countermark: [ATTACH] and this is a counterstamp:...
