1945 PSD?

Awesome new pic... Looks like a struck thru copper fragment... Looks like it is a really thin piece of copper... Cool!!!

Added - To bad it's not a lincoln - I could put it into Error Attributions - Struck Though!!!

If you look at the full coin shot, the entire lower edge of the building looks the same.
I think it is a stain.

It might help if there was a close up of the lower edge of the building.

Here are a couple of close ups, I think that was just how I had my lighting, oh lighting you are my full fledged enemy lol

It doesn't show the same under the building in the new pics but looks the same in the other one.

A stain (of anything) can act similar to regular toning (from oxide), making the light refract different and making something look a different color like rainbows are made.

I really like the links to the toned coins... Those are awesome... Very interesting read... It has been a while since I have seen any of that info... Thanks Ed!!!

The area on the base looked like light reflection to me but Ed knows much more about the silver than I do so I could very easily be wrong... On what I think is a retained struck thru I do not think it is a stain especially the area between the T E... The north edge of the anomaly appears curled slightly as if it is coming loose... If you redo that close up with light from a different angle it may show us some thing totally different???
