Hello All,
saw this coin - looked kind of "weird"
Looks like a rim around the rim. The reverse is normal

What is this called? - I tried looking it up but since I dont know what its called it wasn't much help.

Whats-This-Called?-77-Lincoln

Thanks for looking an any info you can give me.

I believe the coin has a fin. Basically, if the striking pressure is high enough, extra metal escapes around the rim.
