Can you post a better photo? It's kinda hard to see. Maybe it's a die clash?

This is the best I can do right now. I already sent the coin to PCGS for grading, however I do not ask them to look for errors, so I wonder, should I call them and ask to do that. I do not think it is a clash, looks it was a flaw on planchet before the coin was struck. http://www.ihhdd.org/images/4.jpg |

Hi,
Could you post a picture like the one you posted on the 2.5 1907 thread, it will help the experts to give you the best answers for that matter. Nice coin and nice doubling of the letters.

Hi again varond, yes you well you might ask them for what kind of error does the coin exhibits. Let us just wait for the experts to comments on your coin it seems to be a doubled die but I'm not an expert in this field.

I can not, the coin is not in my possession right now, I sent for grading. It will be back in 3 weeks, probably.

They (PCGS) will not tell if there is any error if I do not ask and do not pay for it :) So if anyone could tell if this error worth paying $20 will be good

A picture of the entire reverse and obverse would be helpful.
Whatever it is does not belong there. It could be the result of die clashes, it could be the result of a minor chip on that portion of the die. It could be the result of a die gouge. Without good pictures of the entirety of both sides, it's tough to tell.
It is not a doubled die and although interesting, it would be classified as a very minor anomaly.
Thanks,
Bill

Bill, I do not have other pictures, unfortunately.
If I understand you properly it didn't worth to pay for error research with this coin.

That would be correct. It's not worth having it designated or looked at as an error.
An error , in order to have a value making it worth designating on a holder needs to be a little more dramatic that these things.
While it may be helpful as a die marker to match it up with other coins struck from the same die, it is not that big an item on these at this point.
If later in time the study of these coins becomes more advanced and particular dies turn out to be scarce, it may at that time be worth having a designation placed on the holder.
At this point, just to have a slab say "die clash" (or whatever it is) really won't add any value to the coin. Others may think differently.
Thanks,
Bill
