There ya go! Continue Coin Roll Hunting and keep getting bankrolls from the bank. You never know what you'll find next, the coins are waiting to be discovered by a coin collector.

Now that I've seen the whole-coin image of the obverse and compared it with the close-up images, I'm no longer confident that this is a capped die strike. The surface texture seems to consist of numerous pinpoint digs and pockmarks, which are likely to have resulted from numerous impacts. I suspect this is post-strike damage. It's also possible that the damage occurred on top of a capped die strike, but that seems to be complicating things more than is required.

Thanks Mike. Your opinion always counts here.
