mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2740 Posts	Posted 06/29/2026 3:00 pm I wasn't able to arrive at a definitive diagnosis for this specimen. It's clearly not a tilted die error or a tapered planchet error. The only thing I could think of is that the planchet was characterized by uneven hardness. Softer areas expanded more easily and contacted the collar more forcefully, generating a taller edge. Harder areas resisted expansion, resulting in weaker contact with the collar and a vertically shorter edge. This is, of course, completely speculative. Error coin writer and researcher.
