I'm pretty sure that's what is called a "collar clash" marks.  The collar die has the reeding on it ~ it looks like the edge of the obverse die clashed with the collar die leaving signs of reeding on the outer edge of the obverse die.

It is a true mint-made error coin ~ but it's not worth very much.  There's not a lot of people that collect this type of error.  It's a nice example of the error ~ someone might pay you a few dollars just to have an example of that type of error.

Got dog tags?  I'm looking for old dog tax tags and dog license tags! From any city, any county, and any state (prefer pre-1970) ~ oddcoins@msn.com
