Shuny98 New Member United States 13 Posts	Posted 01/15/2019 8:17 pm could this be a stamp error on the date? also is it normal for the reverse to be offset of the obverse. Report this Post to the Staff

nss-52 Moderator United States 54282 Posts	Posted 01/15/2019 8:39 pm It wasn't minted that way, it was damaged at some later date. Quote: is it normal for the reverse to be offset of the obverse. I don't understand the question. Report this Post to the Staff

Yes, we see this amount of offset fairly often. Your coin is a spender due to the damage on the date.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74294 Posts	Posted 01/15/2019 9:17 pm That's called a Rotated Die. It can happen when the die gets loose. Although, in order to become collectable, it has to be rotated 90 degrees or more. Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff

Mark1959 Pillar of the Community 7234 Posts	Posted 01/15/2019 10:41 pm The first reverse pictured is NOT the same coin as the second reverse pictured. Whats up with that? Report this Post to the Staff
spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 01/16/2019 03:00 am Mark, they are illustrating the die rotation in the second (last) pic, which obviously needs another coin to stand in when using a single frame. As E&V said, it is not enough of a rotation to add value. The date on the coin appears to be 19]]]]]]. As said, that is intentional damage. The coin is worth face value.
