Hi,

I have a 2001 that has a partially minted 20c stamp in reverse on the rear. You can see the circle of the 20c running through the text as well as the numerals across the Queens image.

The photo shows the coin and and imprint of the reverse, which shows the marking clearer than the photo.

How much would something like this be worth and how do I get it appraised?

Kind regards

DoodyDeal

I agree, better pics needed.
However, I have a question to ask:
Is the '20' on the coin raised or impressed into the Queen's image?

With my fabulous eyesight I have resorted to fingernail touch and it seems to be impressed into the Queens head.

Hi DoodyDeal and welcome to the forum!

From what I can see this is PMD (Post Mint Damage).
It appears that someone has put a 20c and a 50c coin together and used considerable force (maybe a press, vice or heavy hammer) to cause this to occur.
You can see what appears to be the imprint of the edge of the 20c coin at 5 o'clock.

, because the 20, is backwards, it is what we call a vise job. 2 coins placed together, and squeezed. Not an error, but post mint damage.
