It almost looks like silver clad. The middle doesn't look silver. Where did you get it theres definitely something fishy there.

I have hundreds of ASEs. Some toned, some a little scratched up and some just exposed and ugly but none look like that picture. I'd be really suspicious because it looks like a plating gone bad.

Yeah that looks very suspect. What is the "bubble" in the field above In God We Trust?

Sorry, but you did not enlarge anything- the pics are just small crops. They need to be much larger to be able to tell what is going on there.
Rest in Peace

I will try to take better pictures, the area in question is coming out darker than appears to be, probably from the scanner. The weight and "silver sound" all appear to be geniune. I have hundered of silver eagles, and I do not suspect this to be other than geniune. I will try to submit it as a mint error to be graded.

Thanks for the input

I don't think the quality of the images are the issue but rather the size. They appear to be something in the 300x300 resolution range. Try adjusting the resolution of the scanner to something much higher while scanning the coin.

Maybe something on the planchet or in the die when struck?

That is what I am suspecting.

Are the dark ares below the level of the surrounding surfaces or at the same level?
