spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 07/13/2018 02:35 am I think what you are seeing is due to defective plating. I don't see any ghosting.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74707 Posts	Posted 07/13/2018 02:45 am Yep, just faulty plating. This is very common on the Copper plated Zinc Cents. It happens all of the time. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
Coppergold Pillar of the Community United States 939 Posts	Posted 07/13/2018 04:01 am Huh? All I see is Die Deterioration Doubling. No defective planchet. the other error this resembles, would be plating disturbance, but that's not what this is. Just Die Deterioration. Report this Post to the Staff
