Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74936 Posts	Posted 07/18/2017 10:52 pm I found this in a circulated bankroll from a bank box. As you can see, the U.S. Mint employee tried to eliminate the die clashing by using harsh abrasives to get rid of it, but it did not work to perfection at all. You can still see a huge remnant of the die clashes. There must of been a huge die clash event before they polished the dies to try to get rid of them. This is a great polished example of one. You can also see part of the reverse of "United" of "USOA". Overall, a great example! Errers and Varietys. Edited by Errers and Varietys 07/19/2017 12:18 am Report this Post to the Staff
