Just picked this up. Its not in brilliant shape, but I'm intrigued by the ship on the reverse. I have another with a 'normal' ship, but at the coin show this one seems to have an extra tall mast and sail.
In the photo, however, it looks more like an extra blob of copper from somewhere.
Anyone seen this before? Any comments?
Thanks!

A die chip or gouge, I'd judge. Might be a little crack there, too, to the right and slightly lower. Also perhaps another smaller gouge manifesting itself higher to the left.
