2. Please remove coin from the holder unless it’s US or an official mint case or unless it is graded by a grading service.

3. Images should be taken by a camera or cell phone camera, we ask that members don’t use images through a microscope screen.

4. Always start your own topic, please don’t ask about your coin or post your coin in someone else’s coin topic.

People give common anomalies like this nicknames so they can sell them for a premium that doesn't exist otherwise.

Congratulations on your find.
They are interesting but not a lot of interested collectors in these, which is what drives the values.
The interest is generally driven by collectors that hear about them and find their first couple.
