I've seen this type of error on several coins, so I'd say it isn't too unusual. But no professional speaking. There are cases of the metal of the inner/outer part to be struck so it expands on the surface of the other metal. The inner part would't look round then. Report this Post to the Staff

Mr_T New Member United Kingdom 4 Posts	Posted 04/17/2015 09:49 am The reason I asked is that I only found the post on ebay after I had posted on here. In addition, I also wanted to know if this was an accurate assessment of the value so I thought I would ask people who know about coins as my knowledge is nil. Report this Post to the Staff
