It is extremely hard to capture the edge lettering. This coin has what looks like a raised S near the P mint mark which is incuse. I would really like to know how this was done. Some have chimed in with maybe a hit just right on another coin. That I find highly unlikely with this coin. But I can't wait to see what the experts say. Thank you and happy coin hunting.

I dont see how an raised impression could be left from smashing a coin together. I also added a couple of screenshots of similar coins with this that are on ebay. Its weird how its only 2007 dollar coins can be found with this. That I could find anyway. Report this Post to the Staff

But it would be raised, not incuse like the normal letters. If it were a doubled edge lettering, then all the devices on the edge would be affected the same. So this is just coin contact between two edges of two coins. Not a doubled die, just a circulation/intentional event that altered your coin. Report this Post to the Staff
