I donno guys, it looks mighty Funkmiester to me. It really looks like something happened to the coin. I look at coins like car finishes, do the lines that are supposed to line up, line up. Is there a difference in reflectivity, if there is a "light reflective" line running, does it break up. On the red circle on the right you can see the light creeping up on what might be a letter, the one on the left, there is a hump, strong reflection, light creeping up into what appears to be a letter. It's there, now is it photo shopped, was it done Post Mint, I don't know, but it is there.

Reminds me of a die clash, but I don't see where the pattern fits.

Definitely not photo shopped. I found it by accident. I looked at at at many different angles under my plug in . Thank you for your advise. There are so many things to learn about coins. Very Interesting hobby. I love it.

Be careful when using a USB microscope. Keep in mind that if you send something to be graded, they will only look at with a 10 X loop. If they can't see it with the 10X loop then it's not there. A USB microscope will make you think that there is something on the coin (basically lie to your eyes). Please keep this in mind while using it.

Thanks
