This is well beyond the stage of being a Brockage and is well into the Capped Die Strike Stage. Interesting in that the Cap was Crinkled. Polish-American Numismatic Society Spring 2012 Show.

mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2737 Posts	Posted 05/04/2015 10:26 am Not all late-stage capped die strikes are derived from die caps that began their career striking brockages. Any kind of die cap can be thinned and worn smooth by the numerous planchets that it strikes. These include die caps that started out striking counterbrockages, uniface die caps, clashed caps of all sorts, and any other kind of error coin that ends up sticking to a die.
