Here's a 1941 (with cameo both sides). On the reverse, there's a semi-circular area in front of the sail from die clash that reflects differently. On the obverse, you can see die lines under D G REX.

Levaril Valued Member Canada 289 Posts	Posted 02/27/2021 10:21 am I have this weird 1937. I've seen somewhere it described as a crescent moon variety. It's not in great shape and the picture is terrible but you get the idea. I know not the same at all, it just reminded me of it when I saw your pictures. :) Lev Report this Post to the Staff
Smallcentguy Pillar of the Community Canada 1984 Posts	Posted 02/27/2021 11:21 am I am going to guess that it is similar to the effect you see on a lot of George V British pennies where for some reason the metal movement from the striking of the obverse causes the bulge on the reverse.

TerryT Pillar of the Community Canada 818 Posts	Posted 03/01/2021 10:55 am I've seen many coins with "ghosting" causing a similar effect, but that's not what happened here. Just before I started this thread, I had been checking all my Geo. VI dimes for doubling and came across a 1940 dime that has the same semi-circular area, and a die clash line. As more coins were struck, the line would eventually blend in with the field but the slanted area remains and shines differently. Back to the doubling. Here's a 1942 with the 19 doubled. It also has a bunch of small die cracks and a large one through 10 cents. Edited by TerryT 03/01/2021 10:57 am Report this Post to the Staff
