Not sure what happened to this one but it looks the same after an acetone bath as it did before I put it to soak.
Anyway, there is a die crack on the bust. Thanks for looking

Maybe a Improper Alloy Mix as well? That's a nice Die Crack. Good find.

Gonna have to call that a woodie, but why? Definitely a planchet alloy mix difference to have caused the toning to have that effect, like a softer/harder metal and absorption properties. That gold color shows a definite swing to brass over softer copper. Guess there is hope to get a whole LWC set of woodies!

Good call E&V, apparently it is related to the alloy mix.

Wow Crazyb0, had no idea it would be a woodie. I have a few but none near this dramatic. I really like this one.
Rest in Peace

That's a Groot, not a woodie. A Groot is a HUGE woodie.

Thanks moxking. Groot isn't listed in the glossary, maybe you should mention it to one of the mods.

That's definitely one heck of a monster Woodie! The biggest I've seen. That's one very messed up coin. You seem to have great luck!
