That would be ideal, but not sure it is worth purchasing one unless you are going to be weighing other coins. The weight on this one seems fine.

stoneman227 Pillar of the Community United States 2376 Posts	Posted 01/02/2021 4:56 pm Thanks for the extra pics. Not seeing any evidence of acid. A struck through seems very plausible. If so , very nice ! Report this Post to the Staff
Semipro New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 01/02/2021 7:11 pm So what I'm gathering from all this is the listing should read "ghosted Knights Templar" struck through on reverse lol! Unless someone has an image of The Mother Mary resembling this error lmbo! Thanks so much to all for helping and continuing to help. What a great community! Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5780 Posts	Posted 01/02/2021 8:41 pm Late to the party and I don't think I've seen anyone suggest some form of die damage. Initially, I thought it was glue as well. But I've taken the liberty of putting arrows to a couple of your angled images to show why I believe it is large and unique die damage. When a coin is produced by clashed dies, the clashed elements are raised. I'm seeing raised elements on this coin, but it certainly isn't a typical clash. Look at the images and let me know your thoughts. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
Semipro New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 01/02/2021 10:27 pm Thanks Pete! You've highlighted the anomaly precisely. The image is raised for sure. The flame appears to extend and roll over it. Report this Post to the Staff
Petespockets55 Pillar of the Community United States 5780 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 06:35 am What are the anomalies on the obverse in the field between BER and his nose? Are they raised or incuse? I'm leaning towards it being some sort of die damage caused by some flat, fairly large object getting between the reverse die and a planchet on a previous strike. This could have caused damage to the reverse without affecting the obverse die. The die state seems comparable on both sides so one of them probably wasn't changed out. Love these coins that pique our curiosity. Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups. We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow. Report this Post to the Staff
Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 09:09 am Pete look around the E One there's a small spot of "unique die damage" there too. It might be just me but I find this coin impossible. Report this Post to the Staff

Semipro New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 10:44 am They are raised. Hope this helps..? Report this Post to the Staff
Semipro New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 10:51 am Would you call this "Bionic vision" on obverse? lol! Report this Post to the Staff
Semipro New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 10:56 am It's pretty effective if you look at the pic and imagine the sound effect when Steve Austin would employ his bionics lol. If you've never watched "The Six Million Doller Man" kids just oogle it. It's worth it. Report this Post to the Staff
Semipro New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 11:01 am I will say this coin does have an underlying intrinsic super power that has compelled me to examine it, A LOT! Report this Post to the Staff
Semipro New Member United States 42 Posts	Posted 01/03/2021 11:02 am All joking aside, are the lines a mint error or PMD? Report this Post to the Staff
