Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 07/28/2014 2:34 pm Coop, could this also be called OC with indent ? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/29/2014 10:05 am The indent was caused because the coin was not fully ejected from the chamber. Stuck onto a second coin thus the reverse does not show the devices from the second strike. It would be nice if you had both coins as it would be worth a lot more. But it is what it is. Still a great error. Report this Post to the Staff
Indian1 Pillar of the Community United States 3640 Posts	Posted 07/30/2014 12:03 am Interesting on how the reverse details got stretched out. Usually the area is either void of die detail or has the indent. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 07/30/2014 09:27 am The second strike was prevented in that area because the next coin was in the chamber. thus the obverse was affected the the reverse was not in contact with the reverse die, just the planchet.
