This is quite a nice error pair, but so much machinery damage to the coin. At least the reverse damage is kinda cool-looking.

Thanks! After seeing the fairly nice obverse I was disappointed to see the reverse. But honesty it just doesn't look that bad as the damage is uniform.

Really nice! I like it

Question though.
Does the wide Obv rim @ k8 indicate it was struck out of collar?
Or a partial collar strike?

Words of encouragement are one of the major food groups.
We need to consume them regularly to thrive and grow.

Fantastic error! The damage makes it look like the coin may have shot across the room when it was ejected!

Thanks for posting!

Pete, The coin is an off center strike, so yes it was struck out of the collar.
