coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/18/2015 11:53 am The rough surface on the plating make it hard to tell what is going on, but it looks like it came from a normal die. The planchet is more at fault. There was a period of time where they discovered that the rinsing of the zinc before plating was an issue. After they fixed it, it has been less of a problem.

Jayman931 Pillar of the Community United States 2651 Posts	Posted 02/18/2015 12:25 pm I see what you are referring to (To the left of the T in Trust?) and it resembles a "T" but it is not a doubling of the T...It is part of the plating issue IMO Report this Post to the Staff
Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 02/18/2015 2:11 pm I spotted that T, too. But it's the result of the plating issue. The entire coin is riddled with zinc zits. Poor coin. Keep hunting. Report this Post to the Staff
