Great find! The die eventually broke apart in pieces. The 1950's were my favorite year for die wear errors.

Was wondering - is this a lamination problem?

The mint really tried to get there monies worth out of the dies in the 50's.

It looks like an RIDB to me. Very nice!  I couldn't find a match quickly on COC.

The U.S. Mint probably did the same thing during the tough times during WW2. Probably had to get their money's worth out of every single die since it was a fanancially a tough time.
