Dough101 Valued Member United States 315 Posts	Posted 09/26/2025 2:49 pm I found this coin from an old no-mintmark set of coins in a hard plastic holder. I never open it. I checked the real Monticello house; the location of the vent stack is the same. Good lord. Edited by Dough101 09/26/2025 2:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 5212 Posts	Posted 09/26/2025 4:00 pm Yeah, that's either a weak lopsided die clash, or (more likely) a bit of die clash that survived post-clash die polishing. Report this Post to the Staff
Dough101 Valued Member United States 315 Posts	Posted 09/26/2025 4:36 pm @jbuck, @Spencer, and the coin community; we need to name this cute anomaly. So far, we have "Wounded Eagle, spike, birds' nest, etc. I think we should name this "vent stack" since it looks like it, and the location is similar to the real Montecillo house vent stack. What do you think, coin community? Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 63514 Posts	Posted 09/26/2025 4:38 pm I think vent stack would be a good name for it. It sure looks like one. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
