Walking Liberty Half dollar die cud?

Hey friends,

checking in on this as it is outside of my wheelhouse. Going through a coin collection for a friend passed down and found this - thoughts? Potential die cud?

We would need larger Pics please. On initial view, looks like rim damage.

 

None of the extra metal touches the rim so not a cud. Heavy wear minimizes numismatic interest and corresponding inherent value.

Theory: The extra metal may be leftover solder from an attempt at a jewelry piece. If so, this would also detract from its’ appeal.

 

I agree with surface alteration. Your coin was once worn as a pin. The pin mechanism has since fallen off.

Not a mint error of any kind unfortunately.
No cuds, die breaks.. nothing.

Still worth silver melt.

 

We’re all here for ya bro.
Try to fill the frame with photos. I use my iPhone and a can of veggies

 

I am in the ex-jewelry camp also.

 

At one time that coin was a piece of jewelry. Now it just spot pricing for value.

 

I'm guessing it was originally mounted like this.

 

Yes before I read the comments I assumed that gob of metal is because this was
on a piece of jewelry.
