Canadian_Paper Valued Member 86 Posts	Posted 09/26/2012 5:39 pm What kind of value should this type of striking error command? Thanks Report this Post to the Staff

t_y Pillar of the Community Canada 632 Posts	Posted 09/26/2012 6:52 pm This is a type 1 off centre: ring bored off centre, with a normal setting of the core. John may be thinking of the type 2, where the ring is normal but the core is offset. Very nice and desirable. Report this Post to the Staff

Canadian_Paper Valued Member 86 Posts	Posted 09/26/2012 7:31 pm Does it make the value higher then the opinion of $100-$150 or lower? Report this Post to the Staff
Sander Pillar of the Community Netherlands 561 Posts	Posted 09/27/2012 04:02 am That's a very nice error.. In Holland we call them "fried egg" error.. I've seen 2 Euro coins (bimetallic) with same sort error sell for big premiums.. edit: I would not call this a striking error.. It's more an planchet error.. The core is 'offcenter'.. not the strike.. Edited by Sander 09/27/2012 05:51 am Report this Post to the Staff
RogerD Valued Member Canada 491 Posts	Posted 09/27/2012 2:24 pm Having someone serve me up one of these "Fried Eggs" would be plenty nice, this makes me want to go to the bank and start roll searching. Thanks for posting your coin. Report this Post to the Staff

darcyrmt Valued Member Canada 202 Posts	Posted 09/30/2012 12:02 am another toonie error but different coin, a teller asked today if I'd be interested in it - very sad about all the scratches though, any idea of value for one in this condition? And by reading above, I see this is also Type 1.. Report this Post to the Staff

Lynne New Member Canada 1 Posts	Posted 10/05/2012 07:09 am Thank you Canadian Paper for posting picture and John for helping me get a better sense of the value of my coin. I am not a collector and found this coin in circulation several years ago and kept it because I thought it was interesting. It seems it is worth more than I orginally thought. Cheers Report this Post to the Staff
