I'm going to pm Mike Diamond so he can give you his thoughts. Although, I think Coop is correct as I have read the link that has been provided and it makes a lot of sense.

Thanks for the link @coop. I learned something today!

@wendell, on your coin it looks like the partial letters are incuse rather than being in relief--is that right? If so, then I don't see how this can be a second strike, but I'm definitely just learnin'.

If the letters are incuse and backward-facing, then they're contact marks from another cent. In other words, not an error.
