CopperCastle Pillar of the Community United States 1132 Posts	Posted 01/07/2015 12:15 am neat find! Looks like an off center strike that has been elongated (somehow) and counterstamped. Wanna make $10? Edited by CopperCastle 01/07/2015 12:16 am Report this Post to the Staff
smokeriderdon Pillar of the Community United States 3755 Posts	Posted 01/07/2015 01:45 am Its not off center. In God We Trust is right where it should be on top. When they counter stamped it, it squished the bottom lip of the coin out. I have never seen one like that. I agree. I would NOT sell that. Report this Post to the Staff
