What does the edge look like. To me it looks like a partial collar issue?

The rim area is what the what we see on the first two images. The edge means the outside diameter of the coin. That area will show what I want to see.

I think coop means straight-on shots of the edge at a couple of points, not angled shots.

I don't understand what he wants - all his examples are angled shots as are my photos. And my photos show the edge quite clearly too.

Note on the last image of the edges, you can see were the planchet was not fully in the collar. Note that part of the edge is not showing reeds.

I agree that my coin is a partial collar. I had included that description in the original title of the post.

Might be partial collar but it looks a lot like a centered broadstrike.

Isn't it possible to be both?

And since the horizontal and vertical diameters are different, wouldn't it be an uncentered broadstrike with partial collar?
