None of the design is visible in the indented region, no displaced metal, and no warping on the obverse of the coin behind the indent.

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 09/15/2020 03:36 am Possibly a dropped Grease Fill from one of the leaves? Interesting.

Yokozuna Pillar of the Community United States 4618 Posts	Posted 09/15/2020 07:41 am My first thought was that it looked like a reverse leaf. I don't think it's possible to say for sure, but it does look as if it's struck through. I would place it in a 2x2 and save it. Maybe the olive branches are just too dried out and have started to lose leaves. (Sorry, it's early and seemed funny.) ANA ID: 3203813 - CONECA ID: N-5637 Clean a coin that may be worth collecting? Please DON'T! When in doubt, leave it dirty!! Report this Post to the Staff
SamCoin Pillar of the Community United States 3237 Posts	Posted 09/15/2020 09:17 am Thanks guys! I hadn't considered a dropped leaf, but it does look about the right size and shape. I'll put "possible dropped leaf" on the 2x2. Edit: @Yokozuna never noticed your Tom Waits quote in your signature, but good taste! He has a few good coin lyrics. There's also "I'm shining like a new dime" in Downtown Train, off the top of my head,, and I think a few others that aren't coming to me right now.
