Pokermandude Pillar of the Community Canada 1192 Posts	Posted 01/16/2014 2:37 pm Is this a partial brockage? Or something else? It looks like it was struck while the previously struck coin had not fully vacated the premises. Report this Post to the Staff

SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10459 Posts	Posted 01/16/2014 4:44 pm Yes, struck with another, previously struck coin overlapping this planchet. These are also called indent strikes. These errors are really cool, when you find the matching error coin.

Pokermandude Pillar of the Community Canada 1192 Posts	Posted 01/16/2014 4:53 pm Cool. Thanks for the info. I figured they had some special name I'd never heard of before :) Any idea on the value? I'd guess in the $40-60 range? Report this Post to the Staff
SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10459 Posts	Posted 01/16/2014 5:58 pm I'd say about half your guess, given the circular coin roll scratches on the reverse. Plus, of all the Canadian denominations, modern errors in the 10-cent series garners the least amount of demand (and price).

mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2738 Posts	Posted 01/17/2014 8:29 pm It's a partial brockage since a struck coin was responsible. When a planchet is responsible, it's called an "indent", at least in the United States. Error coin writer and researcher. Report this Post to the Staff
