That has got to be die clash marks. I overlaid the obverse on the reverse. The marks you point out align perfectly with the chin. I also found...
On that point you are 111% correct!
Sorry, snaz. The coin is in a F-12 slab. See here. It is also listed other places in this thread.

A quote from my first post; I have always though it a fake. I just cannot seem to find the niche it fits in.
Your thread of hope is not strong enough to hang a spider from. That coins is a fake. All I am saying is that the location of a mintmark against...

I also suspect that the coin is funny, but I tried to copy the right "4" over the "1". Problem is, it does not fit there. I know it is possible...
Are you sure you are using the same order as the others? The corrosion I see is on #3.
Hopefully. At least now I know what I can bid.
Well, it is definitely worth more than 1¢. If that coin is nearing red with wear on the cheek like that, it has to have been cleaned.
Just spoke to NGC. As courteous and friendly as could be expected. They are sending me a form to resubmit the coin. Their mistake. They pay...
I am with Matt. If that coin approached that coloring, it has been cleaned.
