It was a roll of commemorative 50 cent pieces celebrating the Queen's Golden Jubilee. I noticed in the lower left corner, below the Queen's bow what to the bare eye looked like a second smaller P. After further magnification and enquiring of an experienced coin collector, the small P turns out to be a die chip. I discovered 12 coins in the roll with this identical die chip. Just curious if anyone else has one of these? Sorry about the quality of the images. I found it really hard to get the right angle and lighting to show the die chip really well.

Not all discoveries have to have a monetary advancement to be worth while. Welcome to the hobby and to CCF. Report this Post to the Staff

I've come across a lot of face value oddities that way, maybe one day I'll score something very rare or very odd, until then I'll just enjoy looking. Report this Post to the Staff
