I found this a few months ago, in an envelope of coins that I had stashed as a kid in the mid-1980s. After checking Cuds-on-Coins, there is no matching listing, so I am going to submit it for attribution.

Now that I'm looking at it again, I have started to wonder if that bit around the W isn't a retained interior die break.

It's more than your standard spike head. More research required.

Could be an Retained Interior Die Break as well.

Cool find Brand...not on you, but I hate that I have to scroll through all the 1980's coins to get to 1986's.

fwiw, on long catalogs like that, I usually just use the search function.
