Cool coin Bditto too bad it circulated as much as it did. The reverse almost looks like a split die face.
We are gonna need some better photos. These just aren't gonna do it. If you scroll down to the written stages. It says stage C then High lighted...
Yes, this is a split planchet after strike. Or a clamshell. [ATTACH] This one is barely staying together from what I can see thru the slab it is...
