My thoughts on this are that David Lawrence probably gets NGC to write anything he wants on the label. :cool:
Hi Brittany, Unfortunately, it's a counterfeit, or replica if you will. US law requires that replicas of US coins be marked with "copy."
I'm with Green. The photos are to small to be of any use.
I suppose a dropped element could impart an impression on the die face and then manifest as raised on coins then struck by that die. I think this...

It looks like a minor misaligned die, but the coin shouldn't be angled in relation to the camera when showing the face of the coin.
Penny- Nice find. You'll always get better pictures if you photograph the coins before you put them into the holders. Also, full coin shots...
