bobby131313 Forum Dad United States 22362 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 1:56 pm Not my coin or pics. I see the reverse lettering but it has the cupped shape of a die cap. Thoughts? Shop CCF Members on eBay. Report this Post to the Staff

Biedercoins Pillar of the Community United States 1537 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 2:05 pm That is an oddly attractive coin! And yes, I'd jump on the die cap wagon. If not a cap, there was "something" between the die and the planchet. Report this Post to the Staff
1847bill Valued Member United States 334 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 2:13 pm It is showing elements of being a capped die and brockage. I'm thinking it's an elaborate fake. Imo Report this Post to the Staff
ijn1944 Bedrock of the Community United States 11242 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 2:27 pm Curiously attractive, yes. Wouldn't be stunned if it's found to be a fake. End-on pics of the rim in two or three places would be interesting. Report this Post to the Staff
Biedercoins Pillar of the Community United States 1537 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 2:34 pm If it's true minting brockage, wouldn't it have to have some die clashing? But that doesn't fit with a capped die*. You may be right about the elaborate faked error.... too confusing for my recent anoxic brain injury. Report this Post to the Staff
Chase007 Pillar of the Community United States 6325 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 2:36 pm The incused and backward lettering is an indicative of a clever vice job. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 76394 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 2:41 pm That was my thought a well. Report this Post to the Staff
JTCC Pillar of the Community United States 755 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 2:43 pm post mint manufactured error. post mint altered coin, not a mint error. Report this Post to the Staff
mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2339 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 4:19 pm 100% altered. The reverse is a "sandwich job" while the obverse has either had a ring excavated into it or was pressed into a ring-shaped object. I strongly suspect the latter, as the sunken ring lies opposite the incuse lettering. Error coin writer and researcher. Report this Post to the Staff
bobby131313 Forum Dad United States 22362 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 4:26 pm Thanks Mike. There was a tiny bit of me that refused to let it go. Shop CCF Members on eBay. Report this Post to the Staff
Hondo Boguss Pillar of the Community United States 877 Posts	Posted 12/12/2022 4:36 pm Agree with Chase - this is definitely a vise job. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff
