    It's a blend of chipped and eroded dies with a bit a strike doubling. Just poor quality control---not a variety.

    That's metal which was pushed up between the die and the collar, due to mis-alignment of the obverse die with the reverse. The Mint calls this "finning," while the hobby calls it "wire rim."

    You might think so, but all the evidence is to the contrary.

    You're super pretentious for no real reason.  You obviously like starting arguments on here, but I'm not going to bite.  I collect and go through coins for fun and to collect but also to  see if I find anything of value.  I have no clue what "evidence" you would be referring to, but going by the shear amount of coins for sale on eBay I would have to beg to differ.
