Up to D in United the coin took a smash or was squeeze. the main question it is if missing clad?

IMHO do not missing clad. Will surprise me to see missing a strip so strait in the clad processing. From photos is hard to see or to evaluate, this coin better is if will be see on hand and with right tools to evaluate.

The idea that this is the result of damage or corrosion came up in a couple of responses. If this is authentic do you think it would be valuable enough to justify getting it evaluated by a professional service? I live and work near ANACS, so I'd probably send it to them. Thanks!

@TrainorSW.... The scratches to the obverse would probably Details the coin, which would diminish the value, IMO. If it were my coin, I would bring it into my local coin dealer/shops & get their opinions, regarding if it is in fact missing the cladding & what their opinion as to what it may possibly grade. When I first got into coins, the 3 shops in my area were very accommodating to my interests & sat down to talk to me about the coins I brought in for inspection. Also, they did not charge me a fee.

Seems like there's a dealer nearby who works closely with ANACS. Can't remember their name. I think it came up when I asked ANACS at a show if I could come pick up my coins in person, and they said I could get them at that dealer. I could be misremembering though.

Even if the weight is within acceptable tolerances, it could still be a missing clad error. If a gap opened up in one clad strip, or the cladding was lost before rolling was completed, the remaining bilaminar section of metal will be rolled to full thickness. I suspect this is the case with this coin.

The new pictures with the edge "smashed" proves it's as Mike said. There was a void in the copper nickel strip. When it was struck, it filled in the void with the copper core. I just got a 1966 back from ANACS that weighed 1.85g. I new it was scratched on the reverse cause I did it back in 1968 when I found it to see if it was real. I just wanted to have it confirmed as missing. All in cost me about $30.00. And yes you will get it back as details, scratched. I figured it was worth it.
