<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Marshall, post: 7603147, member: 21705&quot;]As an Early Copper guy. my first impression is a planchet flaw because of the sharpness of the letters on the depressed area. I&#039;m not familiar enough with mid 19th century gold to know if they were prone to planchet problems. But a lamination or even a strike-through may be responsible.</p><p><br /></p><p>Many people were never taught that the first gold rushes were in North Carolina and Georgia before the rush to California and later the Yukon and Alaska. The new branch mints may have had issues making planchets if it was done locally.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
