95% sure this is a counterbrockage, but wanted the forum's comments...   |

Yes sir! There was one just like this on ebay last week (as a buy it now) - I wasn't quick enough to snag it.

@johnnysprawl I agree with you. Wrong description.... You should ask CCCS to correct the situation. I don't know why CCCS use "Brockage". It's so evident, it's not ! I have a similar one, but 1980 and not certified. http://goccf.com/t/443751&SearchTerms=sp67Edited by SP67

Not surprised at all. I have offered a few times to help Louis with error nomenclature, but I guess he does not want input from "basement experts".

I emailed Louis about correcting it...waiting for his response.
I also emailed Mike Diamond (who recently bought one of my error coins) who also confirmed it is a counterbrockage.

Curious as to which coin Mike Diamond bought - of all the errors I have shown, he has never offered to buy one. Maybe he knows they are not for sale!

I had a 2004 nickel struck on an unknown planchet, which was likely a ballcone burnishing bead, but he couldn't say for sure it was after he looked at it.

Louis's response:
"Never used Counterbrockage, Always Brockage"
I've asked to send it back to him for a proper attribution...

After arguing with him about the proper name, I now have to pay full price for another certification to get the 'counterbrockage' on the slab.
Obviously this will be the last time I deal with this clown, which is a shame, as I have sent him lots of error coins over the years.
