8N New Dist Cap - Shot

I put in a new front mount dist cap 3 months ago. The tractor (early 8N, 6V, front mount dist) was running until a few days ago when I decided it was time for new points, condenser, etc. It hasn't run since and I have no spark. Last night I noticed that the center contact on the almost new cap is totally burned away. The rotor shows no signs of this kind of wear. What would cause this to go bad so quickly?
