echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 05/20/2007 4:30 pm It does look like something was over when it was struck. Report this Post to the Staff

DoubleDie Valued Member United States 214 Posts	Posted 05/20/2007 5:51 pm I does look like a strike through or the obverse die design was broken or damaged before the stike on this planchet. Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 05/20/2007 7:14 pm Any idea as to value? Knight of the Coin Table #56 Report this Post to the Staff
coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 05/20/2007 7:43 pm no. I don't even try to give values for errors because I am not interested in them, I don't collect them, and I don't follow the market for them. You would have to contact someone who buys or specializes in selling them for an accurate current value. Report this Post to the Staff

peachymargarita Valued Member United States 116 Posts	Posted 05/27/2007 10:45 pm Can we get some more pics of the obverse? It looks bowled? Sunken. Could this be a die cap strike? Michael Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 05/28/2007 10:39 am It is sunken and slightly bowled. Ron Knight of the Coin Table #56 Report this Post to the Staff
