I am posting this one on behalf of Zimmy. It is a 1981 split before strike and weighs 1.4 grams which is 50% of the normal weight. I like the striations on the reverse, the barely visable date, and the strong strike at 9 o'clock. Nice one Zimmy!

I'm bringing this coin back with This forum because I think I recently cleared part of how it came to be!
Fold over before strike and unfold after leaving mint!
The shiny part of coin is mirrored at the fold, it was folded before the coin was struck. The reverse is weakly struck at points because of the extra thickness caused by the foldover. An owner before me unfolded the coin and it ended up in a $25 dollar bag of cents at a bank! Lucky ME!
