I'm not sure about the clip, very small if it is one, around K4 obverse / K2 reverse. I'm possibly seeing the Blakesley effect opposite. Could be a MAD strike / PMD, but it just has that look... Opinions very much appreciated

Beware the superstitious... Admittedly - my wife doesn't like this coin

There are four die cracks running from the rim toward the center of the die. Though they do not intersect, if continued, they form three equal 60° pie slices on the face of the die... And that purity, yikes

There are also a few signs of re-punched letters, but the offset "E" in "Diez" (above), and the crooked "E" in "Centavos" are the most drastic:

I am not sure about the letters or the clip, maybe?

But I love all the cracks and the toning!
