Note the lack of any rim. The reverse is absolutely unremarkable, a completely normal strike on that side. Colligo ergo sum Edited by Lucky Cuss 07/24/2019 09:10 am Report this Post to the Staff

Lucky Cuss Pillar of the Community United States 4883 Posts	Posted 07/24/2019 09:05 am Seems as if there's a solid consensus on the nature of this error. If I understand the matter correctly, in most instances the press would continue to operate and many such could be struck before the material capping the die wears through or falls away. So as far as errors go, then, these shouldn't be too rare, the valuation being somewhat subject to whether it's an early or late stage example. For this particular specimen, I've no frame of reference to determine where on that scale it might be. Colligo ergo sum Edited by Lucky Cuss 07/24/2019 11:30 am Report this Post to the Staff
