This post may prove a poor fit for this forum. It makes me wish we had a FORENSIC NUMISMATICS forum akin to an autopsy room where cause of death could be explored. Quite a few corpses show up on this forum looking for a job only to be sent to the morgue. It would be nice to see one show up at the morgue and be sent here.

Anyway, does anyone have a suggestion to fill some lines on this poor fellow's death certificate?

This appears to me to be a genuine cracked planchet error, but I'd like to see more opinions

Looks like a cracked planchet to me. Oh man, when I saw that last picture I thought it was an x-ray of a broken vertebrae.

I'm surprised that the a coin with a really nice error like this shows this level of circulation. It makes me wonder if it was a pocket piece that a collector carried or something like that.

Interesting coin!

Looks genuine to me. 100% pure acetone and an Air-Tite holder.
