fioti Pillar of the Community United States 4212 Posts	Posted 04/22/2013 10:11 am Interesting steps, as they appear hit-free. But I've never seen this. All I can guess w/the fragment on CENTS, is that it was affixed somehow prior to minting, but after rolling. Interesting. Report this Post to the Staff

asimpson91 Valued Member United States 286 Posts	Posted 04/22/2013 7:47 pm The E is undamaged. So it was definitely a planchet flaw before the strike. I would assume so anyway! The steps anamoly is still a mystery to me. There is no evidence (that I see) determining it to be PMD. But at the same time I cannot see it being a design flaw. Report this Post to the Staff
Pertinax Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2133 Posts	Posted 04/22/2013 8:00 pm I'm wondering if the windows on the right of the building look suspect ? So, another crazy idea is that perhaps the nickel is a fake and that the fake die maker's cast went a bit awry. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 04/22/2013 10:38 pm Struck through error on the E. Occurred during the strike with an obstruction in the way. It is rounded and typical of a wire struck through. The corner looks like a couple of coins/semi sharp object hit it. The die is in LDS die state and the windows are weak, but still able to be use for a little longer. Report this Post to the Staff
