I could use some help with this one... what am I putting on the flip?

Shallow acid bath in petri dish?

Did you weigh it, if it was acid etched it would be lighter.

Jbuck, I'm leaning the same. The rim looks pretty normal.

JimmyD, I always forget to do that, I'll put it on the scale later.

I'll say PMD. The reverse looks like it was exposed to acid.

My first thought would be a thin split planchet after the strike.
