I can't be 100% certain but the second one looks like a cast copy made from an original "restrike" that sounds weird...

Anyway, it could be a copy of a restrike.

Thanks,
Bill

I figured something might be up with it. I noticed the edge looked a somewhat odd. I'm just not sure about it

It's a cast copy, I've seen several of them before. They predate the Hobby Protection Act
