Very Very Nice!!! Congrats!!! Bucket Lister!!!
 

Nice find.s the seated.s in good shape less the clip on it..lotta detail
 

from a distance you might think it was a clipped planchet but I feel it's more like damage....still a beauty of a coin!

What or why would do this if not from the mint like this?
 

Damn she's a BEAUT!!!!! CONGRATZ.....

If you blow the images up you can see where that area has been worn away more than the rest of the coin. Not sure what caused it, but it's old damage on an otherwise really nice coin.

I agree it looks very strange. I don't want to rule out mint error. But your right its questionable. But either way it makes a unique coin, and I'm very happy with it. Specially since it was a very hard one way hit that I thought was iron. But there was about 5 square nails in the hole with it
 

Clipped...damaged...Probably something we’ll never know, but I DO know...she’s a stunner!! A beautiful coin from an obviously awesome site...Grats on a great save. Ddf.
 

Wow .. That really is a beauty! :tongue3:
 

Very nice find! Congrats!
