Yep! I saw one like this 17+ years ago. Chris
It doesn't look like a blank. From the view of the edge, it doesn't look like it was punched cleanly from a sheet. Also, I don't see any evidence...
This is just one of several for this date/mintmark. They aren't really hard to find if you're looking for them. [ATTACH] The way you composed...
