Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 09/05/2022 6:19 pm Ok yes something isn't right for sure. With all that porosity visible, I wonder if it isn't a casting of one side of a nickel.

Either way it is most likely PMD. It also could be a split planchet, but the reverse surface doesn't look like a delamination. Suffering from bust half fever.
