Got this is a bulk lot of world coins. Cost less than 10 cents when all said and done.  What date would this be? Any info would be helpful actually. Thanks...Mont |

Thanks! That looks like it to me. So that makes this a 1903 then  A 115 year old coin with a Lamination error(At least it looks like one) for less than 10 cents...I'm happy with that.  |

Very nice Delamination error MontCollecter! Very nice score from a bulk lot of coins you've purchased! It's a Lamination error that peeled off after the strike. Errers and Varietys.

Thanks E&V Here is a close-up of that area. Is that a rim Cud on the right side of it?  |

You're very welcome and no problem! Is that area of where that " Cud" is raised? If it is, than it's a Cud. Also, check that side, where that " Cud" is to make sure it's not pushed in metal from damage. If you check, this will rule out, if it's a Cud or not. :-) Errers and Varietys.

Maybe? Looks right to me After looking at it more closely I believe this is a 1902 not a 1903. I finally figured out which characters are the date and they look more like the 1902 characters to me. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces21070.htmlTake a look at the character for 1902 in the link above. On the coin you are looking at the one on the obverse rim that is 2 above the one that looks like a + symbol. for the second number of the date look directly across the coin from the first number. Look like the symbols for 1902 to you? Thanks again...Mont. |

You are correct sir I was just picking symbols before and they all matched that link I sent but now I learned something new I have circled the correct symbols for the date and have it with a side by side of the dates symbols so we all can learn.   |

Spruett, I had a feeling that it was that. It's a pretty cool find! Errers and Varietys.
