An accurate weight, in grams or grains, would be the easiest way of determining what it is. Based on what I see so far in the thread, it's...
It's not a shattered die, imo. It appears to be PMD on the reverse. Not clashed dies.
Great example of a clad layer missing - Yes, the reverse is always more valuable, because people collect them either by their State, or a...
Can I ask where you got that roll? Bank, supermarket, store, or ?
Hopefully your purchase of these at an average of $10 each will be a learning experience.

On the form is good, but for this type of situation, also put in on the 2.5 x 2.5 submission flip.

Sorry, but I don't see anything wrong with the edges in your photos.... Is the the one you thought might be a weak edge lettering?
I can't tell what it is - I see the extra L - are there more extra letters, or is that the only one? Can you shoot a larger area of the edge?...
When the first Weak Edges came out (mostly Adams, at the time) they would bring around $25-$30, in PCGS or NGC holders, which isn't cost...
I've handled plenty of MEL's and Weak Edge Lettering dollars - sorry, but your coin isn't a Weak Edge Lettering. The lettering is a -touch-...
