crab eater Valued Member Australia 124 Posts	Posted 06/25/2022 11:06 pm This coin has no reeding, is slightly bigger and weighs the same as a normal 5 cent piece. Found noodling today. The depth of the strike is impressive to me. Report this Post to the Staff

MachinMachinMan Pillar of the Community Australia 568 Posts	Posted 06/26/2022 01:03 am Wow crab eater, that's pretty spectacular. Noodling 5 cent coins is a hard slog and you deserve a find like this. Report this Post to the Staff
crab eater Valued Member Australia 124 Posts	Posted 06/26/2022 06:19 am Thanks MMMan , no such thing as a 'slog' though. I love it. Keeps me out of trouble. And it is really affordable . Report this Post to the Staff
mrwhatisit Pillar of the Community United States 1743 Posts	Posted 06/26/2022 07:35 am Actually that is a great example of an off-center strike, a broadstrike by definition is a coin that was struck without a retaining collar used to hold the coin when it was being struck so it wouldn't expand beyond the preset diameter.

ttkoo Valued Member Australia 228 Posts	Posted 06/26/2022 10:33 pm Great find crab eater! I'm amazed that it stayed in circulation for 19 years! There is an almost identical one (but a 2008) on Ebay atm for $99 The Ox moves slowly, but the Earth is patient. Edited by ttkoo 06/27/2022 08:23 am Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 14506 Posts	Posted 06/26/2022 10:34 pm Well, most broadstrikes are off-centre to at least some extent. With no collar holding the planchet in place, a broadstrike can come down anywhere on the planchet, more or less at random. Having it in the exact centre would be unusual. I'd say this fits the textbook definition of a broadstrike. A non-broadstruck off-centre would still show the reeded edge of a normal coin. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
