Seeker_101 Pillar of the Community United States 1791 Posts	Posted 02/01/2025 5:18 pm It appears to be an unlisted spike head. Closest to it is SKH-1c-1983-62 but the intersecting point on the upper bar of the E is different. Nice find! Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 02/01/2025 7:16 pm I see some plating issues near the date. @dou, can you please confirm that the linear "vein" is not depressible with the tip of a wooden toothpick? I just want to make sure that you don't have a linear plating bubble.

Spence Moderator United States 34397 Posts	Posted 02/01/2025 8:50 pm Ok interesting. Seems like it is just an unusually-heavy die crack then. That is pretty cool and thx for checking.
