Looks like something more than missing clad layer. Very cool. John1

You noticed that too huh. I was thinking grease or something was on the copper planchet before the cladding process. Any other guesses?

What is going on on the bottom obverse, where the bottom half of the the last few letters of "quarter" are missing?

It looks like a lamination, both pre (the head) and -possibly- (QUARTER) post strike.

Judging by the reverse weakness, thinking this planchet had major defects (missing partial clad) prestrike. Thanks, Doug.

Sorry John. Not yet. I sent it out to a friend to have him do a cool stacked photo of it. This is all I took before

Different for sure.  Also curious of weight when it returns. Thanks, Doug.

Looks like a peeling clad (after strike) and missing clad in others areas . (pre-strike)

Awesome coop. Looks like you've updated your layout since I last saw them. Once the new pics come in you may want to switch them out though.
