It's a lamination error caused by an impurity in the metal.

Thanks for the info coaster. Why do I find Queen Elizabeth 2 so much more attractive with that scar running along her face?

Quote: 1922 Threepence Doubled Die reverse Great Pics.,fairly common(to scarce) in 1922 3d's when sorting large numbers with a USB scope. Guy in our small group of collectors up here on the North Coast of NSW(Aust.). found a 22 3d where the Mint has had several attempts to locate the final 2. So further proves,along with the 1922/21 OD,that the Melbourne Mint were modifying Hubs/Dies. Whether London knew or approved is another debate. I'll throw the Pics. up when I find them.

A recent aquisition. 1952 Australian Shilling. Can't decide if it is an off-centre Broad Strike (Struck outside collar) or a Mis-Strike. It has no rim milling, and is relatively flat, perhaps slightly dished on the reverse. Also slightly upset 11:30 Any thoughts?

Some rare overdates being auction at the moment. I really enjoy this forum, the information exchange is fantastic. I have seen the blakesly effect with clipped coins but didn't know it was associated with broad strikes.....who knew! Thanks ryurazu.
