CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 03/10/2017 4:18 pm This one's a little out of my line. I think an expert will probably help you with it. In the meantime you can browse this link. It's not all inclusive, the closest to yours is the Broadstrike. I don't believe it's a Broadstrike, but it makes me suspect a collar issue. http://www.jimscoins.com/error_coin_examples.php Report this Post to the Staff
CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 03/11/2017 2:49 pm John1 is correct. There were a lot of them in 1985. Your coin is an Inadequate Upset and Excessive Obverse Die Convexity error. The upset process is supposed to make the outer perimeter of the coin thicker to get a nice strike on the perimeter. The error is characterized by weakness on the perimeter lettering on both sides of the coin. Here is an example similar to yours. Report this Post to the Staff
