To bad for the finger print but this is one of the better 1968 / 1 cent doubled 8 that I'v seen but to have a combination of 2 struck through wires on the Obverse puts this one in a 2x2 holder.

Yup, it looks like that piece of Rim Fin broke in 1/2 with a pointy end and blunt end. As we all know the planchet shavings of all sizes is a common thing struck on coins if you look.
