Fuzzy, that is some serious road kill. You should win the ugliest coin award.  And I agree. If a coin was run over by a train, it would be more flattened than an elongated coin.

just spotted it, there is only 3 claws on the right foot of the platypus How much would this add to the coin? I only opened it because I thought it was spam I'd have to delete.  Yeah right..what a load of bull..couldn't help your self could you..your just so naughty and won't admit it   Email me your address sap and i'll send it to you for a second opinion as it's extreamly hard to go off a pic  Anyone have one that they know go hit by a train..I don't have one on me sorry, so it looks like I have some tests to do

the bigger coins where always harder to find for us too, getting a flattened 20 was an achievement that put you on the awesome list for the day.

The center one looks like it was sanded down. The one on the right looks like a casino nickel.
Train coins tend to be lopsided, like early cobs.

Ausjack, your coins are clear examples of Mint error.  The right hand one was made when someone dropped some steel wool into the machine. The middle one was created during some after work drinks at the Mint when one of the workers spilled his beer. So hang onto these coins because they will be worth a fortune on ebay
