DVCollector Bedrock of the Community United States 10045 Posts	Posted 02/18/2012 2:30 pm If I were to guess...a planchet was stuck to the reverse die, another coin entered the striking chamber, and could not be completely enclosed by the collar, so it spread out upon strike? I don't know what this would be called--brockage? Whatever it's called, it's an interesting error! Report this Post to the Staff
coingirl Previously Ousted Canada 398 Posts	Posted 02/18/2012 2:44 pm Baanos, you may ask... It arrived yesterday after I purchased it in Europe from a dealer. But.. if you are a fisherman and catch a big Salmon or halibut....So I ask you where did you catch it..... I am sure your answer would be: in the ocean... or out there....or somerthing like that... DV collector... something along thaT WAY is what my thinking is.. Am not sure about Brockage... I believe brockage would be if the other side comes through in mirror... the reverse side is BLANK, as blank can be.... Report this Post to the Staff

biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 02/19/2012 03:05 am It looks like a railroad rim caused by another planchet in the chamber. Also some stuff looks like PMD. Report this Post to the Staff
coingirl Previously Ousted Canada 398 Posts	Posted 02/19/2012 2:09 pm Biggfredd suggest you have another look.. and then perhaps you would want to try justify your PMD suggestion... Report this Post to the Staff
