This coin appears to have extra 'blobs' of metal on both sides.

The obverse has a peculiar blob at the base of the neck. I can't see any evidence of PMD that could account for it.

The reverse has several blobs from above the head, around the edge behind the head and a distinctive "nipple". There are a few more little extra 'stars' too.

Does anyone have any theories about the origin of these 'blobs'? In any case, it's another addition to the "O+S" collection.

Maybe it was damaged by heat?

Yes I'm agree with errors & verities on this one as there's evidence of blob blistering and pop goes the weasel. Interesting thou sally.

Yes, very interesting, wishing your pictures were much bigger and clearer as coin looks in bad shape.
