silviosi Pillar of the Community Canada 6244 Posts	Posted 04/20/2023 10:32 pm IMHO been an 2020 coin was the bi-ball collar on angle and what I see an unbalance strike. It is an error? No. those strikes are in the Mint parameters. The opposite Rims bink me at this conclusion. At the speed of 750 coins a minute sometimes the collars could be angled. Report this Post to the Staff

gorham_collector Valued Member United States 426 Posts	Posted 04/21/2023 9:19 pm I see a grease strike thru. If it were a "die adjustment strike" the Reeding of the coin will be not strong like a normally coin. Because the Reeding occurs when the coin is struck so if a weak strike the Reeding will be affected. Also the reverse resemble the same weakness as the obverse. In this case it doesn't so grease strike it is. Report this Post to the Staff
TedError Valued Member United States 242 Posts	Posted 04/21/2023 10:15 pm So is a grease strike worth anything other than 10 cents? Report this Post to the Staff
Dearborn Moderator United States 97511 Posts	Posted 04/21/2023 10:35 pm Nope sorry, but 10 cents is better than 'none' cents.. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget.

mikediamond Pillar of the Community United States 2738 Posts	Posted 04/22/2023 10:14 pm The faint peripheral elements on the obverse are most likely due to die wear, specifically a type I've termed "design-devouring die wear". Essentially the field portion of the die retreats down to the deepest levels of the die recesses, where those recesses are narrowest. It's quite common on recent dimes and quarter.
