<p>[QUOTE=&quot;tstout, post: 585352, member: 18615&quot;]Nice find, and better still nice pictures to review.&nbsp; To me, it looks like an added piece of metal got caught between the planchet and the die.&nbsp; I can&#039;t tell what that little gob of material is on the right side, but it&nbsp; might be part of that extra metal, an unusually large piece.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My comments are based on a conversation about this type of find while at the ANA conference in Milwaukee 2 years ago.&nbsp; An attendee had two dimes that were compressed into one, I did not get to see it, but there was an informal discussion about finding&nbsp; &quot;extra metal&quot; on coins.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Please let me know if you get other replies with different explanations, I&#039;m as new at this as a 2005 cent.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
