I've got an unconfirmed 'trail die' type Ike. Should I post it here or somewhere else?

It would be helpful for us to help you if you concisely explained why you believe this coin is somehow special.

I see the photos - but have no clue on what you believe might be special

I agree with Coinhi and Dearborn, die polishing abrasions/scratches.

Maybe my terminolgy is wrong, I thought they (the abrasion marks) were similar to the die gouges on the 'Tiger Claw' pictured on the ikegroup.info https://www.ikegroup.info/DIVA%20li.../1D2-401.pdf

the 'Grizzly Claw'

As much as I love Ikes, I am still learning in the V/E arena and will defer to the experts here.

I'm not familiar with Ike's, but trail dies are from polishing and originate at a device or letter.
Your "Tiger Claw" varieties are neat but seem to be the result of some kind of damage to the dies, not trails

Thanks for sharing those Tiger Claw varieties.

Personally, I wouldn't consider Tiger Claw varieties a type of trail dies.

Thanks for everyone's input, this coin is the only one I've ever seen (not that it's worth any premium price) and it shares some of the same charachteristic similar to the DIVA's listed on the ikegroup forum.

I searched several thousand Ike's around 2009 or 2010 and found several Friendly Eagle Varieties, Grizzly Bear Claw Varieties, but only one of the Tiger Claws and only recently re-found the coin pictured above.

Found it interesting and thought someone might have one in their collection.
