Possible South African Mint Errors

@Fuzzy317

Will take pics of the edge of the 2 Rand coin. Edge still covered with nickel. Also thought someone used a grinder or some tool to "create" the error. But then the copper should show. Will post pics of the edge later during the day.

PS the 2 Rand planchet also much thinner than the normal 2 Rand.

I disagree with Nevol. The South Africa 2 cent coin looks like a legitimate offcenter brockage error coin. It was struck while the collar die was engaged, which is hard to replicate with a vise job. The error portion is an incuse mirror image, since another coin got in between the dies when it was struck. On the obverse, behind the error area, it is harder struck than the rest of the coin, because of an increased minting pressure (due to the intervening coin) - whereas a viced coin would be weak in that area.

Hi Guys, sorry for the delay with regard to the photo.

Attached the edge of the normal and "mint error" at 9 o'clock anf 3 o'clock respectively

Thank you all for your opinions, appreciated.

SA Mint does mint other African coins.
