Saw this on Kijiji.
Seller asking $100.00
Thoughts?
Looks PMD to me but I'm no expert on error coins
(not interested in buying, just trying to learn)

The coin has a fully formed rim, meaning it was struck on a Type 2 planchet, and it was struck in collar. It is impossible to have one side struck as such, and the other side to appear as a Type 1 blank. Legit uniface strikes can exist, but they look nothing like that.

If you are trying to learn, start here: http://www.error-ref.com

This would be an example of a uniface strike: http://www.error-ref.com/full-uniface-strike/
