Issue on 1795 Flowing Hair Half - Planchet Flaw or PMD?

zrlevin

Like many users on the forum, I found this coin in the parking lot at Home Depot and I think it might be valuable. I'm curious if this issue in the obverse field is PMD or a planchet flaw of some sort. Any ideas? Thanks!

(Joking about the first part, serious about the second )

I vote planchet flaw

Planchet, I think. From the star over.

Whatever...it is forgivable.

I'm gonna have to shop at The Home Depot more often.

Planchet flaw. Minor. Neither adds to or detracts from the coin.

Yep...I agree with the eminent opinions above...Though surprised it was not called out on the label.... well, maybe not... Cheers, RickO

Cool coin no matter what.

I agree it's a planchet flaw and forgivable. This is a really nice small head variety for the grade. Love the detail on Liberty's eye.

Thanks for the help everyone! I had thought it was a planchet flaw when I purchased the coin and I'm glad that was the consensus here.
