Hey Monika, it's Sab. Been thinking about the reverse IBE. What about a reverse transfer? A first strike on another surface would give EBI. Using that struck surface on another surface would give back IBE. It would probably be light though because of the multiple stikes. The second IBE image on the original coin is indeed light. Whatcha think?

Ok...been thinking
It still would been in reverse...meaning the letters would be facing west..the letters on the coin are all facing east.

Nice close ups....that looks like it may be a counterclash. I'm not great on errors but would like to see Mike Diamond's opinion or maybe even BJ Neff as I've seen he is back around too.

Thank you Maineman .using my new USB microscope for the close ups...works great.I did read a little about counterclashes...Haven't seen a lot of pics to compare my coin too....But the once I did see look a bit like mine...
I better hold on to it.Wonder if BJ Neff would look at it if I send it with my double traildie coin?
Sure be nice to know if its a vise job or a clash.......:)

Just send him an email and ask.This is a strange one...possibly a real error and damage too...I'd just like to see an error expert's opinion.
