I was going thru a bunch of coins I found metal detecting and found this DDO. http://www.varietyvista.com/01b%20L...20Photos,-IN
Ground finds are not usually in the very good condition but after conservation I don't think it looks too bad. It's also appears to be struck on a tapered planchet? The odd thing is it still weighs 3.12g. Would have thought it would be underweight?

Great metal detecting find! Looks great after conservation. I believe that a true Tapered Planchet error has to be underweight and the coin has to have a good amount of weakness. https://www.error-ref.com/tapered-planchets/

Maybe a tilted strike? It does appear to have a Rim Fin on the obverse left.

Neat find, especially from the ground! =)
