Dearborn Moderator United States 96802 Posts	Posted 01/30/2024 8:58 pm from the limited amount of the coin that we were allowed to view, I may say it 'COULD' be the Ring of Death ( Coin Wrapping Machine Damage.) Now how about a full coin image? Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.

Spence Moderator United States 34423 Posts	Posted 01/30/2024 9:00 pm I think that split plate doubling is most often between the letter and the rim, rather than like the OP's coin where it is inward-facing. Maybe just plain damage, where the copper plating had been sharply removed?

Gigi2 Valued Member United States 319 Posts	Posted 01/30/2024 9:31 pm @Dearborn-The cat knocked my camera stand off my desk , so it's broken. This is the best I can do until I break out my duct tape. I found it will fix almost anything. Do these additional photos help at all? Edited by Gigi2 01/30/2024 10:27 pm Report this Post to the Staff
