Show the reverse in the slab. It has rotated dies, all Newcomb 3 have rotated dies.
Well, here ya go two of them. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I am thinking tilted mis aligned die. Cool little rim cuds. Most tapered planchets will show a weakness on both sides of the coin face.
Reprocessed steel cent. Bumps on the rim are from being replated.
Could be that one. Pobably is, the photos aren't very clear. For a major variety you need an FS number and that one doesn't have one. Looking at...

Copper isn't really that collectible. It is easily turned back into new Plumbing one of my stacks to turn in soon. There are a few Bath remodels...
Those are the heaviest of the lines. As struck they look raised like die cracks, when you start looking at the surfaces they are everywhere in a...
I agree and thats why it would look much better in a 64 slab. Edit :I might have paid more for the coin if it was IMO correctly graded.
I don't buy from photos, haven't even looked at the VAM
