I could really use some help finding out what exactly is going on with this guy. Clash? Rotated Double strike? Hopefully the mad die clash guy can help out. Besides out of 5000 cents, this is the perttiest one. Spelled wrong on porpoise

I have to get better pics up. All lettering are 2-3 x's thicker than normal, with a glow around it. Not saying anyone's wrong or right. Just saying in person it's obvious that there's an extra wheat ear running NE/SW. I'll try to get some more up later. Last thing when you guys say damage. Are you thinking post or ore mint? Thank you much

If it is damage, I am thinking post mint, but like you said, clearer pictures could always reveal a different story.
Rest in Peace

The pic is blurry but it looks like some glue on the coin. Try soaking it in acetone. It will not hurt the coin.

You're absolutely right about the glue. It's on pluribus & part of the left reverse. There was a piece falling off & when I peeled it, I realized something was different with the coin. Unfortunately that was post pictures. I emailed my pics- to shrink them down. Hopefully it worked. I still need to take clearer ones. Thank you much for the tip
