The planchet had an improper mixing of the metals during its manufacture, leading to what we see, and we collectors call these 'woodies', since these coins can have a wood-grain appearance. These can be quite minor to very dramatic in appearance... And I second errers/varieties said... Edited by mrwhatisit 08/28/2023 9:39 pm Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 08/29/2023 07:18 am CoolBreezeBrown, I agree with it being a "woody". As to value,to the right person it will have a small premium over face/melt value. John1 Report this Post to the Staff
