JimmyD Bedrock of the Community Canada 21633 Posts	Posted 11/18/2021 11:43 am Not a Die Cap error, looks like it was Struck Through Grease on both sides. Still worthy of a 2x2 Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 11/18/2021 2:06 pm A capped die usually only happens on one side. (on most cases I've seen) Also the rims are different on the capped die strikes. They are more saucer like: A Struck Through Grease will always show the rim on the coin: That is what we are seeing on your coin. Report this Post to the Staff
