…and a reply post to hold the rest of the photos.

Doubling of the earlobe form.



The 3rd side being unusually rough, and due to zinc bubbles covering all of the obv and rev rim, from no collar holding the planchet in the coining press while it was struck.

if there were no collar, it would be broadstruck and a larger diameter. it is possible those lines are just from punching the blank from the stock and somehow survived the striking process.

this would be somewhat commenserate to the flowing (or perhaps draped) dollars that had mint made adjustment mark gouges that weren't fully struck out, if they did it before strike. now i think about it, i'm not sure if they filed the flans before or after. i'd have to look it up again.

i hope we get some secondary commentary on this one.

Error-ref.com says it’s collar damage.

Nice follow-up to the original assessment.

I've seen those lines before and, hopefully, in the future I can remember what produced them.
