Crappy strike in general. Looks like a Chinese counterfeit.

Just noticed that dave. You are right. They are very deceiving counterfeits, but probably made out of lead.

Also this one is obvious.

I guess the seller believes that no one will be suspicious if the counterfeits are of the most common commemorative halves, like Booker T. Washington and Stone Mountain.
