Could there also be a possible strike-through at the bottom right? (5 o'clock)

Ksammut..I am not sure what that is.. Like a chunk was just never there..I original got it for its date 1925S. And then noticed the peeling..thought that was neat..but overall thought it might be PMD. I wonder if Coop looks at these threads bet he could figure it out.

Laminations are caused by a flaw or impurity in the alloy which leads to poor bonding.
