i have a bunch of these in a few binder, I know they not valuable but they are fun

my old thread
http://goccf.com/t/250155

improper mix the coin has not really a woodie like look through out with white speckles inside it like a woodie more like poorly blended mixture like the 1938 example
https://www.error-ref.com/improper-alloy-mix/

without the light and dark streaks that make it a woodie.
