coppercoins Pillar of the Community United States 7629 Posts	Posted 03/15/2008 10:47 am looks like broadstrike that pancaked out in one direction more than the other. It bothers me a bit that the entire design is visible and the area that shouldn't have a rim seems to have one. I'd be interested to hear input from someone who actaully knows something about errors.

hunter20ga Pillar of the Community United States 1173 Posts	Posted 03/15/2008 11:10 am Interesting coin. I hope you will share additional pictures with us once you have the coin in your possession. I'm not an error collector, so know nothing about these things. Should be a great opportunity to learn. Report this Post to the Staff
foundinrolls Pillar of the Community United States 3507 Posts	Posted 03/15/2008 3:29 pm I would love to see a bigger picture of the reverse and to know how, if any, the reeding is situated on the coin. I'll look forward to it when you have the coin. As for rarity.....I don't specifically know but it is a nice early error! Thanks, Bill Report this Post to the Staff
