Dearborn Moderator United States 95517 Posts	Posted 02/19/2026 8:27 pm not sure what is going on here, but it looks raised at that straight line that goes across the face. (judging by the shadows.

Jebjow New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 02/20/2026 1:39 pm To me, it looks like it could be a delayed second strike? https://www.error-ref.com/delayed-second-strike/ Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73978 Posts	Posted 02/20/2026 2:05 pm Maybe a Split Planchet error? Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 95517 Posts	Posted 02/20/2026 9:25 pm Thanks for the reverse side image (you should always post up both sides in the initial post) But EV may be correct with a partial split planchet.

Jebjow New Member United States 5 Posts	Posted 02/20/2026 10:08 pm Thank you for the feedback. Would this be something getting verified? I've been a coin collector for my whole life but have just recently attempted to get organized and learn more about what I have. I did try to load both sides of the coin in my original post but didn't realize I had to load one then go back and load another. It kept replacing the first I chose to upload with the second I was trying to load. I have figured it now but I do apologize. Report this Post to the Staff
