...no worries Hercules.

It's good to see some gentlemanly behaviour here. I am not impressed with the poor manners displayed during this topic discussion.

In my opinion I think it is insulting and sexist to belittle women and girls and write "They realy(sic)are a bunch of girls" within the context of this topic.

I wonder what the women and girls who visit the Coin Community Forum and have read the contents of this topic think of this expression?

Thanks, Squire. I'm still trying to figure out what a "puller" is. I obviously don't get out enough to know what it means, but I strongly suspect it isn't a compliment.

Hi Hercules

I have checked up the term "Puller" on Wikipedia. There are a few meanings for this word:

A kind of fish
A particular kind of tool (eg. a wire strecher)
A person eg. Chesty Puller, a United States Marine Corps Officer during World War 2 and the Korean War. The most decorated Marine in the history of the Corps.
In computer gaming - a character in an MMORPG whose primary task in a party is to get the attention of the enemies and hand it off to the tank.

These are mostly rather neutral, if not inspiring meanings


Squire

I think your coin looks interesting. I would be keen to hear what our Coin Community Forum experts have to say about your find.

Thankyou for your input Squire. I realise these images are still not 100% but maybe someone can supply more information for me. There is a couple of earlier posts by--Jeff on11/30/2012 And Steve on12/01/2012 which contains a link which shows a 50c piece just like this one and claim it to be a Ramstrike Error.

Your link is broken by the ellipsis in the middle. I recommend fixing it so people can see what you're talking about.

Hi Hopefull

In cases where I am not able to photograph my coin very well, I have found it useful to scan this using a computer printer.
Here you can control the resolution and I normally set that as 600 by 600 dpi. Below is an example of one of my coins that I scanned using a computer printer. I chose this option as I had trouble taking a photo of this very shiny and reflective coin.

After the first lot of photos I was thinking "post mint damage" but after the second lot of photos I am leaning towards "ramstrike".
The photos really need to be much better though to have any certainty.
