coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/17/2016 09:57 am To me it seems that the theory of the steel being the issue for the dies seems odd because what are the chances of the same area being affected on the dies. Seem like the metal would have to be lined up exactly the same in order for this to happen on the same area? It would seem to be more logical that it could of happened on a hub. The transferring the weakness to the die as the hub was sinking. Thus creating the different dies with the sinking issue. The location of the issue is what seems unlikely to me. To be on the exact area of the rod, they would have to been lined up on the die. (unless I'm missing something here?) Report this Post to the Staff
mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2747 Posts	Posted 12/17/2016 10:43 am The mechanism remains a puzzle. But there are precedents, as mentioned in my article. As to value, they're not worth very much. Error coin writer and researcher. Report this Post to the Staff

I think that the real value to me is the "crusade" to find what an anomaly is and how it came to be the way it is. Searching and research are challenging and fun, I think. Thanks again, Mike, for your help! Report this Post to the Staff

Thanks for the site reference - very useful...I had not found it yet! Your numbers in black in the lower left hand corner of each image: Just guessing that they each represent a different die? The number after the decimal represents a different die stage? Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 12/19/2016 11:54 am No, those are the address number for the full shot of both sides of the coin. So if someone wanted to see a certain one, then I can go back and pull up the full images from my files. Report this Post to the Staff
