The obverse has a really deep set rim but has pretty clear lines so I don't believe it is brockage. I'm not sure what to refer to it as. The "die-cap" has a portion that is torn away from the bottom planchet. I do not know what caused this (I hope) it is some kind of mark from being pried from the die? I have seen some ridiculously high prices on die cap varieties. Mine is not certified; I just found it at a garage sale in a coffee can of old pennies. I can't seem to find any examples that look like mine. Do I have something unique? Help Report this Post to the Staff
