outstanding write up Chase!  @DOCC - Not sure if that is FFD - With FFD the lines are perpendicular to each other (from what I've seen so far anyway)

I have not seen any possible examples on Indian cents, so I am unable to say with any assurance. I will keep these photos for future reference - maybe they will help down the road! Thank you!

@Marve, as I mentioned I am in agreement with Pete and Brandmeister .can you explain how the dime came in contact with heat sealer/crimper before if was placed in the cello? it must have happened before it went inside the cell casing because there is no damage to the wrap.

Thank you @makecents and @Chase007!
I appreciate your support and encouragement. There is at least 2 years of basic research behind this - and many blind alleys!

Just finished the article. Well written, and I enjoyed the old school U.S. Patent diagrams! Looking forward to the next articles in the series. =)
