coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 08/01/2022 1:18 pm This was a victim coin with two other coins used to squeeze the rims to make it look like a mint error? (when it is not) What were they trying to make it look like? A partial clip coin: But note on these there is not rim distortion, that the fade shows. Note that the rim edge of the strike it not seen on a real off center. Sometimes you can see the hint of the gutter edge on an off center: But seeing the rim on the victim coin, yells: "This is a Fake." along with mirrored devices on the victim coin. The rims are squeezed lightly to make it look like an error. If squeezed harder in a vise, it transfers the design on to the victim coin mirrored. With the incuse line of the rim transferred to the victim coin: CoopHome: Why do people alter coins? to make them look like a mint error Report this Post to the Staff
