Cascade Pillar of the Community United States 7390 Posts	Posted 04/13/2015 5:02 pm Yes, almost the entirety of lower victoria is firmly outlined... is the die clash unusual or value adding for the series? Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16845 Posts	Posted 04/13/2015 6:27 pm Until fairly recently, British collectors tended to regard error coins as "defective" and therefore worth less than error-free examples. Things like die clashes are now increasing in value, however, especially for the modern machine-struck series such as this. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Mr T Pillar of the Community Australia 2180 Posts	Posted 04/17/2015 11:33 pm I'd say it's VF. Not sure of value but certainly more than just bullion. Report this Post to the Staff
