I believe your right, there just is too many wrongs and not enough rights to make it a 003. Thx again for your feed back

It may also be part of the N from CENT on the reverse from a die clash - check out the overlay position

I was thinking that maybe I could be a clash. There is a very thick line right at the Adams apple and then a much smaller line farther out. I do believe it could be a clash. Thx for the over lay that was perfect.

Sorry I didn't post any pics. I wanted to check all the markers first. Just wanted to know if they were proofs only.
So then may I ask 1more Q. I checked for die marker and the one under the chin is the only one I could find. This coin is clearly not a proof, so is it counterfeit or struck on a wrong planchet. Or is it possibly a A die clash. There is a second line under the chin on this coin it's up against the Adams apple, I don't know if you can see it very good.
Hard to tell from the photos but it looks like a scratch on the coin, it could also be a die gouge or strike-thru.
It appears to be a genuine coin with no errors, just damage and would be worth about 3 - 25 cents depending where you sell.
I'm sorry about the pics, this pics is blown up 30x. There is a raised line I think that it's blown up to much to see it good. I think someone got wonky with it.
Thx for taking a look I appreciate it.
Even if it was a die gouge or strike-thru it is small enough that it would not generate much collector interest.
Thank you all for your feed back I really appreciate it. I'm learning some new things and appreciate all your comments and input.
