Would you call a die fill error on a wood grain error "Wood Putty"?

    I have not heard that term used, however, it does relate. So, possibly.... Cheers, RickO

    I just made it up. Fun naming coins. I have named too many to count :)

    I would call it poor quality control.

    I would call it a weak strike.

    The wood grain effect that is indicative of an improper alloy mix is intriguing. IMO

    “Putty” has an alternative connotation in this hobby, and it’s not positive. I would generally avoid that word.

    I'm more concerned about Honest Abe's wax problem.

    two examples of poor production quality in one coin ;)
