Dont be to quick there fella. Nothing so far says it is or isn't. I'm kinda there on the edge, don't want to pull the trigger just yet.
Need to get her to post some better pics.

 

Yes, see the middle bottom button "upload file" hit that then your promted to choose a file. Gallery for example hit that pic your photo then choose the full image photo.
My battery is almost dead not at a place I can charge for a while. Hope that helps you

 

Your trigger or mine does not matter. I'm on the edge also; however, more reason to believe altered than genuine. Just being factual. Nevertheless, I hope it turns out to be a genuine mint error.

I wear glasses and can see all that is needed in the tiny photo. The cladding looks "burned off" the center; yet no evidence of heat - only radial metal flow. What caused it? Perhaps sand blasted or actually die struck w/something between the planchet and obverse die.

Some professional numismatist or collector here has possibly seen or made one of these. Eventually we'll get an answer.

 

I wear glasses to. I also work with metals. This is no sand blast, your right no applied heat. I wouldn't say I'm a cent collector but I think anyone in the U.S who collects coins has atleast a couple dozen Abes in their collection.
I kinda think this lady is one of the good people. That & I'm stumped, curious.

 

like that?

 

You got it girl

 

Melt and blow cutting laser cutting tools are used primarily for cutting metal and metal alloys. This process is similar to vaporization cutting, with one subtle difference. Instead of using additional heat from the laser to create a bigger hole, the melt and blow laser cutting tools use a blast of compressed gas to push the melted material out of the cut after the material has reached its boiling point.

Your coin was most likely subjected to one of these fancy laser cutters. Your coin looks as if the metal is flowing from the center to the outside. Machine shop follies.

 

I believe i have the other half
