CoinStew Valued Member Australia 165 Posts	Posted 04/02/2013 01:48 am Hi, I pick up a few $1 dollar rolls from the bank and went through them and found a few interesting coins. First I believe is a Grease Filled Die of a 2005 WW2 remembrance coin Then found I believe are a spew roo and a ear error for a 1984 and a 2010 and a real pretty 2011 coin. Better in hand.

Candace Valued Member Australia 251 Posts	Posted 04/02/2013 04:30 am The first isn't a Grease Fill because it would only be on one part of the coin. But what you have is something better it looks to me as a light presser die, one of the coins that the mint have used to get the pressure of the die right. The reason I say is because it is consistent on both sides. Great find Report this Post to the Staff
enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 04/02/2013 08:22 am I think the weakness on the reverse is from circulation. I reckon the weakness on the obverse is Grease Fill. Report this Post to the Staff

awildeheart Valued Member Australia 295 Posts	Posted 04/02/2013 08:50 am Ha! Snap! I just uploaded two roo coins with errors in the same vicinity. Re the Dancing Man coin, is the thickness uniform and even? Just wondering 'cos the weak strike seems to be in the same area on both sides of the coin. Report this Post to the Staff
enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 04/02/2013 08:57 am There ist meant to be many details on the reverse in the corresponding position on the obverse that has weakness. Other than the 1945 being a little weak/worn theres nothing missing. Report this Post to the Staff

coin loveing feind New Member United States 15 Posts	Posted 04/09/2013 06:37 am Ive seen few like this and for sale listed as oil filled die errors still nice coins even if their errors or as inferior blank errors due to metal quality being low supposedly.. even errors need love! Lol Report this Post to the Staff
enworb Pillar of the Community Australia 4411 Posts	Posted 04/09/2013 06:53 am A Grease Filled Die error is just that a die tht was filled with grease. It has nothing to do with an inferior planchet. Report this Post to the Staff
