Hello Sarge50
Your rotated half looks like a magician coin.
Is that a seem along the reverse edge?
If you tap on it, it should sound hollow.

Search Magicians Coins and you will thousands of hits.
The coin is cut apart, the inside of the lower part is hollowed out, the back part usually has a small block on the inside to allow the parts to be easily separated.

The same way this was setup, can even hide perhaps a different type of reverse. Like a 1964 Silver half dollar and a Franklin half dollar. So when you find some thing odd about a coin, check to see if it was altered or not. How? Weight differences, also look on the rim to see if there is a double line on the rim:  Note where the inset was added? |

mdpm....I'm still in SHOCK! I have already passed at least 1 more of these in a few rolls I previously went through with that weird seam but the coin was not in collectable Condition! Gotta go back through the 8 rolls, that was crazy finding that!
