Spence Moderator United States 34447 Posts	Posted 03/08/2020 6:17 pm @Shillingm, first welcome to CCF. Second, can you please clarify whether or not this coin has a saw cut partway through edgewise or whether the cladding has separated on its own? It looks more like a saw cut from your pic, but I'm not sure.

Shillingm New Member United States 6 Posts	Posted 03/08/2020 8:18 pm Few more pictures. Hard to say cut or separation. Thanks for your replys. Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 03/09/2020 01:20 am It looks like maybe the planchet was separating prior to the strike. It's interesting in any case.
