Looks like the start to a new column and some remnants of columns as well. There even appears to be a 6 or an S on the obverse rim. What do you folks think? Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/15/2017 3:34 pm There are 4 bays that have an extra column that is part of the design: These are there to make the other columns behind that one look more 3-D like. But they are on all the fresh dies and get altered/removed with die polishing. Report this Post to the Staff
