wazzappenning Valued Member Canada 329 Posts	Posted 02/09/2015 4:15 pm looks like someone bashed it or tried side cutters on it, but somethings not right. upon seeing the last picture here, I checked with my thumbnail to see if in fact that little bit of the edge was raised. to my surprise a gap appeared. well my first split planchet, and most of the stuff wrong with this coin appears to be because some of the metal fell off prior to striking.

robmck1967 Pillar of the Community Canada 870 Posts	Posted 02/10/2015 10:05 am Pretty cool. Does the split go halfway around the rim? In the picture of the obverse it looks like it goes from the top of the queen to the bottom of the bust. Nice coin! Report this Post to the Staff

Alexer Pillar of the Community Canada 2632 Posts	Posted 02/10/2015 1:07 pm Definitely hang on to it thats the kind of coin I would like to see in hand, is it from a BU roll? I only ask cause there might be a few things going on with it, pics are to blurry. Take lots of pics then keep the best delete the rest, before 2x2n it. Nice find Edited by Alexer 02/10/2015 1:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
