flippy Pillar of the Community Australia 1874 Posts	Posted 01/12/2013 11:05 pm Hi snappy I think it has been stamped slightly off centre. It is quite common especially on centenary 50c coins. Report this Post to the Staff

enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 01/13/2013 6:22 pm Definitely NOT a partial collar. As others have suggested it is just a slightly off centre strike, a very common occurrence on 2001 50c coins. Report this Post to the Staff
The Unicorn Pillar of the Community Australia 750 Posts	Posted 01/13/2013 7:31 pm My apolos snappy , I thought for it to be an off centre strike both sides would have to be off centre the same amount. (Hence since you've showed one side, I thought it must be the only side off centre, which I thought meant the retaining collar was loose ..... It must be one misaligned die I guess). I have several examples of 2001's with one side perfect the other like your images and also ones where both sides are off centre to the same degree. I'll go back into my hole Edited by The Unicorn 01/13/2013 7:46 pm Report this Post to the Staff
