Nice one for sure! Look at how you can see the flawed mixing of the alloys. I'm beginning to think it was because when they mixed the alloys they would add brass chunks in and what we see is that un-mixed brass that hadn't fully broken down to mix with the other copper, tin, zinc and manganese to make the Bronze alloy. When rolling, that improper mixing separated. Good example!

Maybe Jason cut up and sold the Bronze Man to the mint accounting for all the woodies  (See Jason and the Argonauts for you youngsters)

Thanks everyone. Crazyb0, thanks for the observation and what you explained make's sense and for me particularly was informative since I was not fully informed on the different Alloys mixes. Quote: Yep I agree with crazyboi it's also a woody. Aka improper mixture of alloy I was wondering if that would be considered a Woody!may be a Little Woody
