This coin was part of an old cookie jar I recent found and sorted thru. I put it with the rest of my circulated IHC's but thought it was nice enough to put in an airtite and decided to look at it under a scope. I noticed this, only around the "United states of Anerica" on the Obverse I believe it's around the feathers too Date lacks it. Believe this to be a "plain 5" type Would be a nice coin except for this (photo thru airtite so ignore scratches)
Doubling and some verdigris. I think the doubling is what's referred to as "Longacre doubling." As for the verdigris, a soak in some Verdi-care should help it!
Outline on lettering is typical "Longacre" doubling, which is caused by features on the hub that surround the lettering not being polished off the die after hubbing. This is common on many designs of the period, with it being most well-known on Indian cents. The date doesn't exhibit this, because it is punched separately into the die.
