Just going though my sack of wheats and came across this. I know it's pretty banged up, but still thought was worth posting, since never saw one like this. Pretty new to the coin scene maybe this is common. Just want your expertise on this one. SD card was being funny on scope. Will try to get better pic by end of week.
That's not a Die Error. It's a Planchet Error. Lamination as stated by the other members. Could also be a slightly Cracked Planchet. Please show the Reverse side. Worth? $15.00 - $20.00 Or whatever a collector is willing to pay for it.
It is the penultimate planchet "Woody" in that woodies are bad mixtures of the component metals of copper and tin. This planchet was so damned bad it laminated and flaked off giving it a more 3 dimensional aspect over the normal woody. Usually the Philly mint preferred to send these lousy planchets off to the minion mints in Denver and San Francisco.
