It actually reminds me more of lamination errors, where something gets caught between the dies durring pressing. But that's just IMPRESSION, not deduction. OK. I've got the termionology wrong, but I can't come up with the term for what I described. Lamination is a planchet problem and what I am thinking is a striking problem.</p><p><br /></p><p>Come to think of it, that doesn't fit either since the details are sharp on both sides. </p><p><br /></p><p>I'll just end where I began.

Come to think of it, that doesn't fit either since the details are sharp on both sides. I'll just end where I began. I don't know. The only thing that looks familiar is what I think could be a crack (or sctratch) from the rim left of the date up to the eagles breast. It crosses the "clash" at a right angle.
