As I come across more varieties, they seem to grow on me. -CH27 Collector of U.S. Coins, Varieties, and Colonial Coinage Report this Post to the Staff

tropicalbats Pillar of the Community United States 6108 Posts	Posted 11/05/2019 10:39 am I was thinking post-strike on this one. While the coin is worn, the devices are still pretty sharp, yet UNITED is heavily distorted. It would seem the lam is thinnest at the U and deepest at the D so the U shows up best. Guessing somewhere out there, at one time, was a neat little lam scrap with pretty much just the word UNITED on it, which makes one dream of that getting struck through onto another coin...
