Buddy Rest in Peace United States 7075 Posts	Posted 10/08/2013 6:31 pm I spent some time yesterday wandering around the interweb looking at error coins and I didn't see anything like it. So, if you're certain that it came from the mint then I would guess that the planchet wasn't properly prepared. I wonder if what is going on at the back of Washington's neck is a clue. It's a puzzle.
