While looking at these dollars I came across this interesting looking one. Look at the earlobe and it has an extra piece of metal to give an appearance of a doubled ear. Your thoughts

Could even be a bag mark that moved the metal into a clump. Can't really tell for sure as it is not a close enough image to see from here.

I lean toward a bag mark as I can see what appears to be the spot that the metal was moved from.

Thanks,

Banks in my area just got the Monroe and Oklahoma quarters this week. I've noticed a lot of die chips on Oklahoma. Haven't gone through the Monroe's yet but I think it's more attractive than the earlier Presidentials.
