Again....I really don't know my rear from a hole in the ground with regard to these things, but this one is definitely weird. Once again, my photography doesn't do it justice. The rim is strong, as is the face of Honest Abe...but the devices in between are almost missing. The same sort of thing is going on on the reverse, but I just can't make a photo that is a decent representation....What, if anything, is this?

Grease Filled Die - these are actually rather common.

Struck through grease. It makes it look like Abe lost an incredible amount of weight in his jaw area. Freaky.

So no premium at all? Just throw it in the return bucket?

No extra value...I do throw stuff like that in a container just for show and tell.

It's something I would keep for educatioanal purposes. On ebay they would bring a small premium.
