Hi GeneralStukov
Your cent (going from the description) sounds like a filled die ,, this is were part or even much of the design detail becomes clogged with grease metal filings or other substances and does not allow the planchet metal to flow into the design. These are not uncommon and in most cases carry little or no added value . Metalman
