If it is, it's the most significant I have seen put of 15K pennies this year.

Split Plating. You can see the zinc core showing through.

Some DDD as well? Definitely dramatic split plating.

Yes looks like DDD too--struck from a tired die.

Agree--a DDD and split plating combo--nice example. It's customary to post pics of both sides of the coin. Some interesting things occasionally get overlooked.

@John1 I have a coin microscope. $40 rig off Amazon. For some reason in picture mode the camera is canted and the pictures don't look good. I'm working on getting a better setup.

Please don't use monitor images as they are too pixelated to help.

I hear ya. I didn't have a choice. The camera is not working correctly on the microscope. Working on a new setup, plus I figured since this is such a large error, it was better to include than not.
