Now here is a neat error... I need to get some Pro advice on how? Maybe a bad die ? Before you all say dryer its only the rev side as can be seen.. The weight is correct , and the diameter is same as another of same year.... Ive included a close up also..    |

Hummm wonder if the obverse is say a die of a penny, and the reverse die was that say of a quarter or a other denomination? I dont collect Canadian coins, but check the pattern on your reverse to other Canadian coins in the same era and see if the reverse is a match for a larger denomination coin. On the Obverse, that dual rim almost screams "Mule". But with the Reverse Rim the way it is, its definately a head scratcher. I hope its not a Magician's coin...  Edited by Collector-Corner

One other question to the penny experts, why is the date and mapleleaf images so huge?

A coin becomes stuck to the obverse die and then becomes the die for a few coins after it was struck by both dies. The reverse side strikes a few coins and the image expands and strikes brockages. The obverse die cap falls off and your coin is struck by the obverse die and the last coin that received the brockage reverse image which may now be capping the reverse die. I think that is the explanation?
