This is visible with the naked eye in places, only on the reverse, and is raised where all the silver is. * Edited by Staff to Add Denomination to Title.

Adam_E Pillar of the Community United States 4846 Posts	Posted 05/15/2022 02:23 am This is called "split plating doubling". As the coin was struck, the copper plating tore from the stress, exposing the underlying zinc core. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34431 Posts	Posted 05/15/2022 06:23 am Yes exactly what @adam said. Not the good kind of doubling, but rather the start of a degradation process.
