papeldog Pillar of the Community Canada 1923 Posts	Posted 04/08/2017 10:29 am This is a coin that I must have found in my change its a 1989 1 cent with lots of things going on with it that I can't explain keep in mind that there is other damage on the coin, I have checked lots of variety sites with no luck for info. I believe it is not a fabrication but a real mystery to me it weighs 2.5g. Spp might have to help me out on this one or anyone else can chime in at anytime with comments please do. I'll supply pictures if more are needed of different areas let me know I'll try and take them I only have a scanner for pictures. Edited by papeldog 04/08/2017 12:28 pm Report this Post to the Staff
okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5589 Posts	Posted 04/08/2017 2:02 pm I think that it was put down to level a chair or table. Report this Post to the Staff
papeldog Pillar of the Community Canada 1923 Posts	Posted 04/08/2017 2:16 pm That might explain the damage on the center of the obv and rev lol but the rim is what I'm talking about and just ahead of the rim on the fields that part is molded higher and on the rim as well there are places where it is raised higher that almost look like pieces of letters. I'll add a few more close ups of the area I'm meaning maybe I'm wrong but it looks like mint luster in the lower areas of the rim but maybe it is pressed as Okie thinks?

papeldog Pillar of the Community Canada 1923 Posts	Posted 04/09/2017 10:11 am I spent some time looking for possible answers to this coin the only thing that I found was an article about Strike Errors, Rim restricted Design Duplication is it possible that this might be one those coins or as Okie has indicated a form of back yard work? What's your take on this SPP Report this Post to the Staff
