SPP-Ottawa Moderator Canada 10458 Posts	Posted 03/26/2018 8:16 pm I think that loon is post-mint damage. The 12-sided shape comes from the collar die - coins that are off-centre, have one side that does not contact the collar die. It reminds me of the "errors" and "die caps" that darryldarryl made wth a hydraulic press...

I wanted to know how a coin could be pressed like that. I am sorry I should have listed this as not my coin. I just wanted to understand how it had been made. I knew the members here would know thank you Report this Post to the Staff
