Look like it could be a misaligned die. What's the reverse look like?

reverse is OK,only error in one side.My friend bought a lot of dollars from VF-XF grade because in this grade ,they are so cheap.And he found this one is different.Ask me for about $60.I bought it because I think it is interesting one.

MAD then. A little more and it would have been interesting. Nice catch on it, it shows your paying attention to details. If the Obverse looked like this and the reverse was normal it would be more interesting.

i would say it;s a misaligned die and didn't take any elements out if it did it would have fetched a premium/

I have a feeling that both of the coins shown are fakes. They might have even come from the same die. Look how the details under the chin matches on both coins. They look "off" to me.

Thanks,
Bill

Bill they are the same coin. I edit the image to show what a MAD that would be collectible would look like. A collectible MAD would have part of the devices flowing over the edge like I edited on the coin in my post.
