The coin on the left is the one in question. As you can see the outer rim is on the wrong way around. The coin on the right is only there for comparison to show how it should be.

Is this a fake or mis-stamped?

Thanks

Is it possible someone knocked the centre out and flipped it around?

Hi cosmarchy and

It's PMD (Post Mint Damage). Someone has removed the centre and re-inserted it the other way around.

Oh bugger :(

Was hoping I might have something a little unique, lol. Ah well, never mind.

Thanks :)
