    The die crack on the obverse makes me leery

    Can we not agree thee is significant doubling of the SERIFS on the obverse as well as reverse, as well as a darker more visible copper edge? Under a loop there are fine drill marks look to be spun an a lathe

    Also a strange weight .2 grams light

    And I guess they’re raised

    One thing that struck me about the supposed “lines” is their exact raised nature. Their spacing is impeccable

    There is a very interesting bit of doubling going on here with the designers initials, the wing and leg, maybe some of the best doubling I’ve seen. The interior of the feather, the actual letters, and entire leg line all doubled thickly. Yes the lines are raised up off of the coin.
