Kafka Valued Member Canada 352 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 3:42 pm Some errors I'd like to share/confirm. As always...thanks. Are the off-centers off-centered enough? Off-center Not sure Off-center Die cracks Report this Post to the Staff

newkoin3 Valued Member United States 60 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 3:48 pm I know they have to be way off center to be worth anything, (like more then 10%,). I'll leave it to the pros though. Nice Cud on the 49 though. Report this Post to the Staff

thedollarman Pillar of the Community Canada 4911 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 4:02 pm the 1949 is a lamination which I would keep, the 1942 is pretty crazy with all those cracks and the 1964 isn't off center enough but it does have a fairly heavy clash on the back of the queens neck, over the 4 and out the bottom of the larger leaf. Feel free to call me Will. Report this Post to the Staff
Kafka Valued Member Canada 352 Posts	Posted 05/05/2014 4:08 pm Thanks dollarman. I'm a little unclear about die clashes. On the '64 I see over the 4 and under the branch. Does it extend to the leaf? Is this what you mean? Report this Post to the Staff

Alexer Pillar of the Community Canada 2632 Posts	Posted 05/06/2014 3:35 pm A forum member has a 1964 penny for sale with simular clash marks as yours, but he dosn't mention it or didn't notice. 301166156706 Edited by Alexer 05/06/2014 3:35 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Kafka Valued Member Canada 352 Posts	Posted 05/06/2014 4:20 pm Forgive my ignorance dollarman but what distinguishes class marks? I see the mark on the back of the Queen's neck but the ones on the front escape me. Report this Post to the Staff
Kafka Valued Member Canada 352 Posts	Posted 05/06/2014 4:21 pm Oh sorry pennyman. What are your thoughts on the '49? PMD? Report this Post to the Staff
Alexer Pillar of the Community Canada 2632 Posts	Posted 05/06/2014 4:33 pm Kafka.. the 49 is a lamination error. The pic I posted explains the clash marks. When 2 die's smash together without a planchet they leave marks on each other thus the next planchet is fed in receiving the "new look" shall we say. Your 64 has a hanging 4 from the queens chin and neck. Oh and by the way the Queen is the front or obverse Edited by Alexer 05/06/2014 4:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff
