Had to look up Carr. Seems his efforts create novelty items. I did a bit of reading on counterfeiting and it seems that restrikes are a known...
Interesting anomaly with the date. I did a quick look at Error-ref and Maddieclashes to see about conditions where the date would not be in...
I was thinking possible counter clash for the date. Try looking at Mad Die Clashes to see.
Found this in my daughter's change helping to move the furniture around in her room - Pocket Change Finds; Post Your Results | Page 41 | Coin Talk...
