I thought I would share some of my World Error Coins in this forum...
Here is a awesome multi-struck India Rupee that is almost impossible to count the number of times it was struck...
I used a 7MB setting on my camera so I could zoom in on the photos via "windows" and tried to count all the rings, and lost count...
Should anyone want a high resolution photo emailed and take the challenge of counting the rings, email me at <<email removed by Staff>> (a gmail email address is preferred as yahoo and others do not accept high resolution photos due to MB message size)...

I wonder how they graded this one MS 62!? Seems rather random.

Wow! Anyone want to clue me in as to how this happens? Did it get stuck to one of the dies?

At least they didn't body bag it like they did to some of my other submissions.

My thinking is it failed to eject, slipped out of the collar and no one noticed until it got hit however many times. Very extreme, NICE!!

I wonder~~~~ the full coin looks nicely rounded, the rim area doesn't seem very distorted at all. I'd suspect this awesome coin maintained itself in the collar through all those strikes. I note a radical shifting off-center from what appears to be the first few strikes, so I wonder~~~~~~ A loose or out-of alignment die?

It's like a tree, you can count the rings to tell how old it is.  I've never seen this many strikes on a coin that you could actually count. |
